Unauthorized Connection


115 Unauthorized connection occurs when individuals or entities connect to the cable system without approval of the operator. This is typically done to avoid payment of a fee for the cable service, but can occur even when no direct payment is required. Unauthorized reception is sometimes referred to as ‘signal theft’, ‘piracy,’ or ‘splicing’.

116 This unauthorized connection is not covered by the proposed treaty because it is an individual act for private purposes; however, it is included in this analysis for comprehensiveness.25

117 These connections do not increase the costs of production or programming, but may marginally increase distribution costs by requiring systems to deploy more amplifiers or signal boosting equipment than necessary for serving the paying customers.

118 Unauthorized connection denies revenue to the cable system provider and broadcasters to the extent that those making unauthorized connections are able and willing to pay for service. It may increase the price to legitimate customers if systems must recover their costs with a smaller customer base than otherwise would exist.
