IPTV Piracy Crackdown in Sweden ’Exposes’ 4,886 Subscribers * TorrentFreak

A major IPTV crackdown in Sweden has not only taken down a multi-million dollar reseller; it has also exposed the identities of nearly 5,000 subscribers. While these IPTV users aren’t currently facing charges, a looming law change in July 2026 could soon turn these types of ’customer lists’ into evidence for copyright infringement fines.

New Android malware uses AI to click on hidden browser ads

A new family of Android click-fraud trojans leverages TensorFlow machine learning models to automatically detect and interact with specific advertisement elements.

The mechanism relies on visual analysis based on machine learning instead of predefined JavaScript click routines, and does not involve script-based DOM-level interaction like classic click-fraud trojans.

The threat actor is using TensorFlow.js, an open-source library developed by Google for training and deploying machine learning models in JavaScript. It permits running AI models in browsers or on servers using Node.js.

Netflix delivers solid 4th quarter, but stock sinks amid worries about slowing subscriber growth

Netflix capped last year with another solid financial performance despite slowing subscriber growth that underscored the importance of its contested $72 billion bid to take over Warner Bros.’ movie studio and slot HBO Max into its video streaming line-up.

The fourth-quarter results announced Tuesday eclipsed the projections of stock market analysts, but Netflix’s report also noted that the video service ended the year with more than 325 million worldwide subscribers, a figure indicating it has added about 23 million subscribers since 2024.

The 2025 subscriber increase marked a dramatic slowdown from the 41 million picked up during 2024, amplifying investor worries that Netflix’s growth has peaked since the 2022 introduction of a low-priced, advertising-supported version of its service that triggered a massive surge in subscribers.

The Act also introduces mandatory derisking of European mobile telecommunications networks from high-risk third-country suppliers, building on the existing 5G security toolbox.
