    Spain: Digital + sharing is not illegal!

    Spanish District Court in Pontevedra has ruled that in certain circumstances, sharing of satellite access service offered by the company Sogecable Digital + DTH platform for third parties, that is, sharing is not illegal. Circumstances of the case relate to one of Digital + subscribers who, by sharing the network shared with neighbors, 12 channels of satellite platforms. The operator platform Digital + has accused him of illegal use of pay TV channels and infringement of intellectual property. The case went to court.

    The court has not yet taken a final decision, but it can not be appealed because there was no violation of property rights. According to the court an individual (subscriber Digital +) has provided a signal to private individuals for their decoders without charge. Digital + signal is divided via set-top boxes neighbors sharing the same building.

    According to the newspaper "La Voz de Galicia", confirmed the court's decision "clearly" that the decoder card and Digital + 'should be used only for personal use and does not generate money. " In this case, it was so, so the judge gave just such a decision.

    The judge said that the redistribution of the signal was made locally and was not publicly available to the public. But the judge found that the Digital + platform operator may consider the contract broken subscriber, which means the civil lawsuit and another between a subscriber and operator.

    In Poland, sharing is prohibited and prosecuted by the police. Therefore, the most commonly used cards are splitters.

    I do not think we should feel any "safer" cause I'm pretty sure it's just a hole in the Spanish law. Although only commercial use of CS is prosecuted all over the world, it still won't make CS legal. It's almost the same case as illegal downloading, I'm saying almost cause in this case someone pays for it monthly and then shares it. Let's hope the judge will dismiss the case and set an example for European lawmakers. (in our favor )

      hey Body,
      i read an article that the European union cant stop the sharing because it cant stop INTERNET the illegal thing is breaking the channels code but sharing is legal as sending an email because we cant control all the data traffic in INTERNET .
      almost of the pay TV channels operators are selling the TV card with its own decoder witch can make the sharing difficult (not stop it )

          Okay, get this, someone proposed a law for taxing emails!!! Yes, it was a couple of years ago but come on... taxing something like that? it's plain crazy. I know they cannot stop CS but the operators will do everything to stop it... I'm kinda scared of mediaguard4 cause it has some anti sharing thingy implemented in it and we have no idea what it is exactly... Plus most of the providers pair boxes and cards which is also damn annoying...

            they have some solutions to reduce sharing : control of the traffic throught the internet provider (because it is today not crypted), or the other technical solution is to limit the number of correct answer in a certain time (I ve heard that it is already implemented in the latest revision of viaccess cards, but not active : 3 correct ECM respons during each ECM intervalle, otherwise answers are wrongs).

              Well, I just really hope the cccam programmers can keep up with them. It would be a really sad day to see all the fun going down after an update... After all I just got my dm500 clone to work... Plus I'm pretty sure no one would buy the linux receivers if they could not be used for something like CS...
