Dazn is done again: The court makes an aggressive repression in illegal streaming: this is the final game of boxing flows?

Dazn, in collaboration with the 12th player Block more than 130 pirate streaming domains and Five illegal IPTV platforms.

This is not just a symbolic victory. Is a Legally binding directive endorsed by € 100,000 daily on fines for breach, issued by Brussels Enterprise Court. Platforms like Cloudflare, Google and CiscoOnce seen as untouchable digital intermediaries, they have now been Formally sorted Disable DNS Access to infractory domains – or pay the price.

Dazn greeted the movement as “first of this type” and “a real step forward” in the fight against the theft of content in Belgium.

For once the law is getting up to date and is making illegal streaming painful, expensive and more and more useless.

Praise where it is due: Dazn does what the industry has been avoiding for years

While others moan over piracy, Dazn is fighting against him. This is not a acrobatics of PR: it is a Legal application strategy With international implications.

• Dazn works at More than 200 countries.

• Stand massive boxing rightsincluding multiannual offers with Boxing of the story room and Queensberry promotions.

• Its platform brings top -notch events in boxing, MMA and football, all under a constant threat of freelancers who think that “illegal streaming” is a crime without victims.

Well, it’s not. Like dazn’s Head of Global Rights, Tom BurrowsHe clearly stated at the Football Financial Times summit:

“We come to the stage where it is almost a crisis for the sports rights industry.”

“Communication rights offers have been made on the basis of exclusivity, but I think there is almost an argument to say that exclusive rights can no longer be obtained because piracy is so bad.”

A legal milestone: dynamic blocking with teeth

Which makes this app really milestone Combination of dynamic blocking and DNS level intervention. This means:

• Isps like proximus, tenet, Orange Belgium and VOO Must block the violent domains.

• Users changing to public DNS (such as Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 or Google 8.8.8) will no longer find a rear doorThanks to the court order.

• Cloudflare, Google and Cisco Must comply or deal with daily financial penalties of € 100,000.

No resources. There are no existing litigation. Just compliance or punishment.

This, combined with the Legal Reforms of 2022 in Belgium, offers rectors an efficient and aggressive legal framework to combat real -time piracy, something Most other jurisdictions still lack.

Call -what is: illegal streamers are parasites

For too long, those that have been transmitted by accidentally stolen content have pretended to be pasting on the “greedy corporations”. The reality?

• They are Leeching off the hard work of fighters, promoters and broadcasters.

• They are Undermining the same industry they say loving.

• They are Cowards that avoid paying £ 10 while hiding behind VPNS and telegram groups.

Dazn’s research shows it One third of the Belgians of 16 to 24 years Use illegal flows to see football and similar numbers probably apply to boxing. It Estimated loss? 180 million £ per annum.

When you steal running, don’t hook the man – You are robbing the fighters of their pay days and killing future events.

Belgium is only the beginning

In this case, successful Belgian as a precedent, other countries are expected to follow the same. We are already seeing:

• ISP’s non -adversary cooperation.

• Public endorsements of the blockade of telecommunications executives.

• Anti-Pirateria Units with Government Support Working next to the stations.

And now that the Great technology goalkeepers are in the hook – There are no more excuses. DNS operators can no longer pretend neutrality when their services are used overlook the legal application.

Final Verdict: The illegal streaming just had its day in court and lost

The pirate community, fattening for years by Lax Execction and Tech Loopholes, has finally been accounted for. Dazn’s victory in Belgium shows what happens when The stations stop asking -well and begin to use the law to fight against.

Is the illegal streaming dead? Not yet.

But thanks to Dazn’s leadership, it’s finally bloody.
