Brazil's telecoms regulator Anatel claims that during an operation last week, it successfully blocked around 80% of pirate 'TV boxes' in the country. Estimates from early 2023 suggest that seven million were active in Brazil. The operation, claimed to be the most significant ever carried out, arrives just weeks after Google & Cisco were criticized for "turning a blind eye" to the IPTV piracy problem.

I'm interested in figuring out what communications company is interested in creating this type of headline about IPTV and Brazil. It makes no sense. There is a corporate or political interest behind this headline.
