Is it legal for Bell TV to disable a customers receiver?
A. Signal theft is illegal. It is against the law to receive the programming or any portion of the programming without paying for it. The software in each receiver is licensed to and/or owned by Bell TV. If Bell TV has reasonable grounds to believe that a person is receiving unauthorized programming, in whole or in part, or using the software for any other unauthorized purpose, it may take steps to disable or modify this software.
