Legal warnings sent to 'dodgy box' providers across Ireland

So-called dodgy boxes are used to access what would ordinarily be subscriber-only content, such as premium TV sports packages, illegally.

Legal warnings have been issued to 22 Irish vendors of Amazon Fire Sticks and other smart tv devices with ‘dodgy box’ capability pre-packaged, according to an intellectual property protection group.

The Federation Against Copyright Theft (FACT) said it had launched a third wave of action across Ireland targeting those selling illegal access to premium TV content.
