It’s an interesting ethical dilemma. I think most people would be against stealing $50 or whatever in a store. I don’t think many people view stealing tv like this as a problem
We as a community need to do more to belittle these poor disgusting frickers until they realize then.

1.45MM ppv buys, it did damn well. It’s smart for them to call out the illegal streaming. It will only get “worse” if you allow it to happen without a fight.
Yeah I'm seeing that on multiple sites and I keep seeing
"sources say" and "according to sources" I'm going to have to call bullshite.

They aren't really going to pursue lawsuits. They're just trying to scare people so they won't pirate future events they have. Doubtful anyone that pirated it would be willing to pay 50 bucks for their events though. If UFC and boxing events haven't gone through the trouble I highly doubt these people will.

I just don't get this comparison.
Physical property versus streaming.
Even if you stream, someone still paid for it and then shared the viewing experience.
With that said, I don't fault people like Triller or Dana White (who is known to do this) trying to protect their content.

Won't someone please think of those media companies that have used taxpayer money to limit your options in every way.
Whatever.

So the internet service providers are just going to hand over that info, huh?
Charter and ATT gave my info up as fast as they were asked for the info.
I had downloaded a few games 6-8 years ago. Both gave up the 411. Had some sleazy Lawyer from Cali emailing me daily about paying restitution.

You couldn't have paid me $150,000 to watch that shite.

No worries. I didn't kniw it was on and wouldn't have watched it if I did know.

It’s a problem
But how can you prove it with any hard cut evidence?

Considering he’s currently posting from the penitentiary, do the math.

I'm sorry I thought this was America

I doubt many who would find a free stream would then pay now.

That PPV did 72.500.000 dollars. Damn. Hate the paul but they're making money

Legal subpoena. Suit v John does 1-1500

I dont doubt that this was part of their gameplan from the beginning. Everyone knows how many events are watched by illegal streamers. They arent in this for the long haul like the UFC, etc... so they can risk alienating fans by pulling these kinds of shenanigans.
