The initiative, organized by DirecTV and called “Alliance Against Pay TV Piracy,” seeks to raise awareness of the impact of this activity on the local industry and provide information on how the pirates are using technology to capture satellite signals illegally. For example, between the 2nd and 3rd quarter of 2012, the industry lost nearly 50,000 subscribers, which was clearly reflected when in October of that same year he launched the campaign against the decoders pirates and people re-hire the services even when the conditions of the contracts have been maintained.
