The Specialized Cybercrime Investigation Unit (UFEIC) of the San Isidro Judicial Department in Buenos Aires spearheaded the action, which is considered one of the largest operations of its kind in the country.
The investigation received technical support from the Alliance Against Audiovisual Piracy and LaLiga, which highlighted the dismantling of key illegal distribution networks in Argentina.
Among the blocked sites are Futbol Libre, Pelota Libre, Pirlo TV, Tarjeta Roja, and the international platform DaddyLive, all used to “illegally access” sports broadcasts and other content.

Authorities warned that these websites often include advertising related to gambling, scams, and unregulated content, posing additional risks to users, especially minors.
Pirated services lack data protection guarantees, parental controls, and cybersecurity. Many of these platforms are part of organized structures that monetize millions of visits through illicit activities.
The operation aims to protect content owners and limit the reach of these networks, reinforcing the message that free access to pirated content involves real risks.
