Italy’s pirate IPTV blocking system: The development and deployment is underway of a new system called Piracy Shield, which aims to block illegal IPTV streams in Italy within 30 minutes of a request by rightsholders.
Piracy Shield’s features and challenges: Piracy Shield works as an automatic platform that manages tickets submitted by rightsholders, and it sends blocking instructions to various online service providers. The source also discusses some of the concerns and limitations of the system, such as the lack of a whitelist, the difficulty of unblocking, and the secrecy of the source code.
Piracy Shield’s developer and status: Piracy Shield was developed by SP Tech, a brand protection and anti-piracy startup with strong connections in Italy. The source also states that Piracy Shield is not yet ready for operation, and that more technical meetings and research are needed to ensure its effectiveness and safety.
