Illegal Streaming Services, Questions

Hi everyone,

I'm new to LET (I believe that’s the common abbreviation here), and I came across this forum while researching some providers behind a service that calls itself “The Tower.”

Their site:
https://client.tower-server.com/index.php?rp=/store/the-tower-jshares

Example advertisement:
https://www.reddit.com/r/JellyfinShares/comments/1pgk026/the_tower_5pb_media_server_ushosted_10gbps_upload/

From what I can tell, several of the hosting providers used by this operation are active here, so this seemed like the best place to ask for guidance and bring this to the attention of the community.

The service in question appears to be operating a large-scale unlicensed media/streaming platform. I’ve contacted multiple hosts regarding the IPs involved, but after about a week I’ve received no replies and seen no visible action. Since LET is known for providers who care about their reputation and compliance, I thought it was worth raising the issue here directly.

For context: I started looking into this after a 55-year-old online friend of mine purchased a “yearly plan” from this service—over €200—and ended up being scammed. So there are both copyright and consumer-fraud concerns.

IPs linked to the service:

PureVoltage – 162.249.168.179

PureVoltage – 192.34.101.21

ReliableSite – 199.127.63.5

HostUS – 77.83.241.35

GSL – 103.1.215.87

CloudVider – 185.193.157.86

OVH (UK) – 57.129.130.174

LeadWeb (NL) – 94.75.213.19

I’m not here to accuse any provider of knowingly supporting this, only to share information in case it helps the relevant hosts investigate or take appropriate action.

Thanks for taking the time to read this, and I appreciate any advice on the proper way to handle issues like this within the LET community.

    On LET you can tag people with the 'at' symbol, you'll get a list of possible usernames, like so:

    @Clouvider, @OVH_UK, @ReliableSiteHosting, @PureVoltage etc.

    They will get a notification that they were tagged here.
