Police have arrested four people and seized servers worth £750,000 in a major new development in the war against illegal streaming. The massive streaming operation is a significant win for Sky and the police as the network was understood to serve millions of viewers in the UK.

Following repeated alerts from the Premier League in recent years, there has been a major focus on tackling illegal streaming in the UK. The latest arrests are one of the surest signs yet that Sky and the police are taking the issue seriously and hunting down illegal streaming networks.
