A pirate IPTV reseller investigated by Sky, who destroyed evidence and dissipated assets in violation of two High Court orders, has been found guilty of contempt of court. David Dunbar of Co Wexford, Ireland, operated ‘IPTV is Easy’ and according to him, generated nearly €500k in profits while doing so. Since that money is now owed to Sky, a judge at Ireland’s High Court imposed a fine of €30,000 rather than a prison sentence, concluding that on balance, he’d suffered enough.

€530,000 still seems high, but it’s good that it’s only a fine. There’s no good reason to imprison someone that does not pose a danger to the public.
