NEW YORK — US agents have sidelined 10 websites they said were linking viewers to pirated telecasts of live sporting events including professional basketball, hockey, wrestling, and other sports.

Federal officers armed with court-issued warrants seized the online domains of Atdhe.net, Channelsurfing.net, HQ-streams.com, HQstreams.net, Firstrow.net, Ilemi.com, Iilemi.com, Iilemii.com, Rojadirecta.org, and Rojadirecta.com.

Visitors to any of the websites were being redirected on Thursday to a notice stating that the particular domain had been seized because of criminal copyright violations punishable by prison time and fines.
Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE) teamed with Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) in New York to execute the warrants.
The sites provided illegal access to copyrighted telecasts of the US National Football League; National Basketball a*sociation; the National Hockey League; World Wrestling Entertainment, and the Ultimate f*ghting Championship.
US Attorney Preet Bharara urged the court to order the website operators to permanently forfeit the domain names.

The move came less than a week before a US football "Super Bowl" championship game renowned for drawing millions of viewers."The illegal streaming of professional sporting events over the Internet deals a financial body blow to the leagues and broadcasters who are forced to pass their losses off to the fans in the form of higher priced tickets and pay-per-view events," Bharara said.
