TLDR Philippine media giant ABS-CBN has filed two US lawsuits worth millions of dollars in damages against two men they accuse of supplying pirate IPTV devices to the public. One of the men was arrested earlier this month by Los Angeles Police Department following an undercover sting operation. Both lawsuits allege violations of 47 U.S. Code 605 (unauthorized publication or use of communications) and other offenses under state law. The media company appears to have made covert purchases itself and has published photographic evidence on its site.via the TL;DR App
