“UK ISP Sky Broadband is monitoring the IP addresses of servers suspected of streaming pirated content to subscribers and supplying that data to an anti-piracy company working with the Premier League.”
Sky is a defendant in the blocking injunctions and a quiet supplier to the side bringing them. It hands Friend MTS its “Top Talker” list, the servers its own customers pull the most bandwidth from. None of this was disclosed. It took a leak of the “RedBeard” documents to show your ISP doubles as the league’s informant.
