Cybersecurity researchers at Silent Push discovered an international streaming piracy network that distributed content from Netflix, Disney, and Amazon Prime Video. The operation spanned more than 1,000 websites and operated through 10,000 internet addresses worldwide. One service called JVTVlive charged subscribers $15 monthly for access to 22,500 television channels and 100,000 programs before authorities shut down the platform. The network distributed material from 20 major entertainment companies across nearly 200 countries.
