A court has ordered Google & Huawei to testify as 'profit-making participants' in an alleged piracy scheme involving IPTV app, NewPlay.

A court in Murcia, Spain, has ordered Google to testify in a criminal case concerning IPTV app, NewPlay. Football league LaLiga, whose matches were allegedly offered illegally through the app, previously called for the directors of Google, Apple, and Huawei to face criminal charges. LaLiga criticized the companies for failing to disable copies of NewPlay already installed on users’ devices. Google and Huawei must now testify as ‘profit-making participants’ in an alleged piracy scheme.

    I swear they have the most ads of any sites I have seen without an adblocker, though I guess they don’t pay to be advertised themselves

      Those advertizements tend to be porn, escorts, and “dating sims”. Stuff that main-stream ad companies, Google included, won’t touch. The search engines are not profiting from those ads.
