8. WARNING AGAINST PIRACY AND INFRINGEMENT
A. Piracy. Receiving any portion of the Services without paying for them and/or any direct or indirect act or
attempted act to engage or assist in any unauthorized interception or reception of any portion of the Services is a
violation of various U.S. federal and state laws and of this Agreement. The penalties for violating such laws can
include imprisonment and civil damage awards of up to $110,000 per violation.
B. Infringement. Title 47, Section 605(e)4 of the United States Code (U.S.C.) makes it a federal crime to modify
Equipment to receive encrypted (scrambled) television programming without payment of required subscriptions.
Conviction can result in a fine of up to $500,000 and imprisonment for five years, or both. Any person who procures
this receiver that has been so modified is an accessory to that offense and may be punished in the same manner.
