Absolute codswallop! By law! Who's law? A magical international law!

Simulcrypting is built into the DVB spec, LOL.

I'll say again nobody has hacked any encryption system. Backdoors have been found into some cards.
NDS are clever people who spend a lot of money fiercely protecting their technology. They also change the encryption every now and then. Sky are on whats known as the p2 or phase 2 encryption. The smartcards were all changed when they made the change. The law which prevents them making changes to their embedded CAMs must have been overlooked, LOVL!
