Global Law Enforcement Disruption of PirloTV Sports Piracy Network
A coordinated international law enforcement and industry-led operation has dismantled the PirloTV sports piracy network, targeting unauthorized broadcast distribution in Latin America. Through a partnership involving the Alliance for Creativity and Entertainment (ACE), UEFA, and Mexican authorities, 44 domains associated with the PirloTV infrastructure were seized and neutralized. This action coincides with broader US Department of Justice (DOJ) efforts to seize approximately 400 domains related to illegal World Cup streaming. The operation highlights a strategic pivot in anti-piracy enforcement, moving from reactive, single-domain shutdowns toward proactive, large-scale infrastructure-level disruptions of redirection networks and mass-scale streaming platforms.
