Question how safe is sv7 code stream from isp?

hi all,

just a thought, while the sv7 hooked up to the internet downloading scramble codes, is the download to the sv7 box encypted at all.

Or will your isp be able look at what your downloading?

Not good. Potentially they could nab you if they wanted. I pay full subs but still have a box upstairs and it is worrying that they could easily catch you out.

Gonna be right screwed if the companies go after the server, get ips and then check the logs then.

hope they do an update one day with encypted stream like a vpn or something
