Overview
- Judge Esteban Rossignoli ordered the seizure of more than 70 related domains and instructed Google to remotely disable the APKs on devices connecting from Argentine IPs.
- Following the order, Magis TV and its successor Xuper TV became largely inoperable nationwide, with users reporting black screens and messages that accounts cannot be used in the region.
- The platforms had already removed Argentine TV channels and local football streams in a defensive step before service access collapsed.
- Authorities tied the case to Operación 404, which involved cyber patrols, raids and seizures of TV boxes, and identified suspects who could face prison terms.
- Security firms warned the APK-only apps posed malware and data‑theft risks, while VPN usage surged as users attempted to bypass regional blocks.
