Owner of Pirate Site Out $2.5 Million
On December 23, 2009, The Kentucky Federal District court approved a settlement between E*hostar, D*sh Network & N*grastar, plaintiffs, vs. David Smith. David Smith, otherwise known as "Blindscan" and "Matchbox" by satellite pirates, was the owner and operator of F2ATV. F2ATV was a pirate website with direct connections to the KBOX, NFUSION, CNX, CAPTIVE WORKS and other 3rd party pirate groups and pirate dealers/distributers.
The terms of the settlement require Smith to pay the plaintiffs 2.5 million dollars and refrain from any piracy activity involving D*sh Network, E*hostar and/or N*grastar.
F2ATV, sometimes called F2A, claimed a user base of over 250,000 people before its sudden and unexplained shutdown. Many people can be certain that their personal information is in the hands of D*sh Network/E*hostar/N*grastar.
