More Sky HD channels lost from cardsharing systems

Further to our previous post http://www.satandpcguy.com/blog/2014/04/sky-hd-channels-lost-cardsharing-systems/ which mentioned the first batch of Sky HD channels to be lost from cardshare systems, another batch of Sky HD channels has now been affected.

The current list of Sky HD channels no longer available on cardshare systems is:
Sky Atlantic HD
Sky Arts 1 HD
Sky Arts 2 HD
Sky Living HD
CI Crime HD
NatGeoWild HD
History HD
Nat Geo HD

These changes by Sky are in an attempt to reduce piracy of their channels via cardsharing.

If you are not using an official Sky card, Sky digibox, or paying a Sky monthly subscription, but are getting your Sky channels from the internet, using satellite receivers like the Iberosat and Ariva, then you will find the amount of channels you are receiving will be reducing over the coming weeks.

Danish police shut cardsharing website

Police in Denmark has closed down the cardsharing.dk website, for the first time confiscating the domain itself.

The website has long been a thorn in the side of local pay-TV operators Canal Digital and Viasat. The site had offered ‘pirate’ subscriptions to the platforms through so-called card sharing over the internet.

The public prosecutor for serious economic crime said this was the first time that police had taken over a domain in connection with a criminal case.

In order to carry it out it was necessary for the attorney general to ask a court for approval in transferring the domain.

The case came to the attention of the authorities following the intervention of the pan-Nordic anti-piracy organization STOP.

Separately, the Swedish culture minister Lena Adelsohn Roth says the government there intends to introduce legislation making it illegal to watch pay-TV without paying the fee.

It intends to make devices for unpaid reception of pay-TV channels illegal.

Card sharing networks are already illegal in Sweden.

Police investigate hacking of Canal+ in Spain - card sharing network investigated

According to reports, a judge in Alicante, Spain, is investigating a network dedicated to hacking the internet signal for the Canal+ platform, according to sources close to the investigation.

The investigation, which is the responsibility of the Technology Crime Brigade National Police, involves dozens of people in Spain in the Cordoba town of Lucena.

It is alleged that a users' forum illegally discharged the signal, a type of crime known as card sharing, which provides illicit access to pay-TV broadcasts.

The Alicante court has identified two of the users, while a third has been accused, according to sources.

The police investigations are continuing, with fraud relating to Digital+, Csat, Canal+ (France), Premiere (Germany), Canal Digital (Holland), BSkyB (Sky TV UK) and other similar pay-TV operators.

New Sky encrpytion being tested, to try and stop cardsharing of sky channels

Sky Italia, the Italian satellite platform, has recenly started to test new encryption coding provided by NDS.


NDS4 is expected to help stop cardsharing of the Sky Italia viewing cads.

Cardsharing and cardsharing networks are becoming an increasingly popular phenomenon, and pay TV comp[anies are always tryting to stop these networks, that allow one viewing card to be shared with other users via the internet.

Sky Italia is available in Italy from satellite position 13 East Hotbird.

If successful expect the NDS4 to be implimented across other Sky services, including Sky UK and Sky Germany.

However, for the moment, no one knows when it will implement the new encryption system
