was a joke, but probably not, they know theyre gonna get pirated left and
right, why not monetize it

as i understand it the box is allowed because it doesnt directly pirate
anything. Its the users pirating it.

>From a political standpoint theyre golden, the left wont come after them in
legislation because they want everything free and the right wont come after
them because holding a manufacturer responsible for a users action opens up
the gun manufacturer door.

The content streams are hosted in places where copyright isnt enforced and
mandatory ISP filtering isnt a thing that will ever work. Im guessing it
operates botnet style where a C&C keeps the content servers updated as they
get shut down and have to move. What I dont understand is how the
maintenance is paid on that infrastructure with the one time fee model. I
wonder if its security through obscurity where they infrastructure houses a
lot of the actual bad internet stuff, but since its hammered by housewives
using the box to watch the view and charmed, authorities have a harder time
filtering the bad content actors. May have to collect packets to see how
much content the bosses is serving outward onion
