With these firmware updates coming donw 3 a week they are planning and executing something sinister. There are wide spread reports of blackouts and missing channels already. Remember, always have the latest firmware version on your receiver though as if you don't and since the latest revs are enforced you will get black screen only. Please read www.bellexpress.vu/rev.html if you are unclear how to check.
Onto a different topic.
Skyhighelectronics - they were not shut down for importing clones, etc. Not connected to any black market stuff. Shut down for "knowingly selling satellite equipment that could be used for signal theft and was primarily advertised as such even though the said equipment was not intended for such use by the manufacturer". I think what they are saying is this: you can sell FTA equipment as long as you don't advertise on pirate sites and or give any impression that the equipment can be used for piracy. Same logic behind shutting down Napster: file
sharing is okay, as long as everyone is not using the service to do something illegal.
Well put all these events together:
1, Major raids to take out dealers and manufacturers to dry up supply lines
2, TSOP update galore
3, Going after FTA dealers as a possibility who advertise on pirate forums
This is how military campaighs are conducted. Cut off an army from supplies then go after them. I think we will see DishNet finally on the offensive, expect ECMs shortly.
