The organizers of pirated broadcasts were sentenced to prison terms in Italy. The Naples court issued a verdict in the case of alleged members of the criminal community Christian Fidato and Anatoly Perrotta. The first was sentenced to four years and four months in prison and a fine of 22 thousand euros, and the second was sentenced to one year and four months in prison.
They were accused of organizing pirated broadcasts of TV shows, series, sporting events and other entertainment content from major streaming platforms (DAZN, Sky, Amazon Prime Video and others). By charging 10 euros per month (or 80 euros for an annual subscription) from each user, the pirates generated revenue of more than 850 thousand euros over 4 years.
In December 2024, an investigation made it possible to identify the IPTV center from which illegal broadcasts were made. His work was stopped.
In addition, the investigation was able to establish the names of more than 6 thousand subscribers of the pirate service. They face administrative punishment - a fine of up to 5 thousand euros. Also, sanctions may be imposed on them by copyright holders if they decide to take measures to compensate for damage.
It is noted that in 2024, piracy caused damage to the sports sector in the amount of 350 million euros.
