I think other providers will wait to see if its profitable for Dish and if it is they will start going after end users. I also feel that Dish's plan is to scare end users into paying up front without going to court. Otherwise, As others have stated it will be pretty expensive going after everyone.
So far I have not heard of anyone, In any forum commenting that they have been contacted by Dish. I would think that there would be some sort of post about it. Then of course the question of whether the post is credible or now.
Just proving what we already knew - paying for IPTV with PayPal / CCs is risky business. Take a few minutes and figure out how to use crypto, for your own sake...
Just remember the Dave tv days of sat tv and 7k settlements ( if they were true)
Could be an issue if they go after a few to set an example in countries where 'streaming' is illegal but doubtful they can do anything in countries where it isnt illegal
Folks are delusional if they think their provider/reseller won’t pimp their information out in order to save their own skin from legal consequences.
But at end of day. How does users know it's illegal? Maybe dish is illegal. Users pay for their service not our fault how they get the videos. Also won't services like CBS live and Disney+ be a IPTV service? Since internet based. If so how do I know what's legal and not. There is nothing I know. If I watch or sub to a IPTV service is their ones that tell me what I am doing is wrong?
Good luck with that dish you may be able to threaten people in the USA but what about the rest of the IPTV customer around the world not to mention how can they prove that people actually watched dish exclusive content anyway, I hope you have deep pockets dish because you're going need to them
