Spanish and Dutch authorities arrested four high-ranking distributors of the Sky ECC encrypted communications service—used extensively by criminal networks—and seized cash, €1.4M in cryptocurrency, phones, cars and luxury items; the arrests follow a 2021 Europol operation that reportedly cracked Sky ECC and exposed communications of about 70,000 users, and the suspects are believed to have generated millions in subscription revenue and may be extradited to the Netherlands.
