Why are you asking? Having issues? How would you know? What are your symptoms? Everything fine for me.

I have 2 Roku boxes with DTV Premier package programming no account, I have dish. 330 plus channels, no passwords, no account has it happened or is an ex-employee able to sell or hacked the streams? Is it legal?

I tried to contact DTV hr department to investigate if this guys story is correct and its impossible to get a hold of them. The guy claims he was a DTV engineer and his position was no longer needed so they gave him a severance consisting of money and 3,000 streams to sell just trying to verify the validity of the story.

Hi @tchizo! I am here to help

Our top priority is always to keep your account safe, for this reason, the option for a former employee to hack or sell information is unavailable.

We hope this has been clear for you

Have an awesome day!

Maybe I'm not being clear, I don't have an account. I have Dish Network but this guy sold these Roku boxes with full programming is it possible to do?

Of course not.  You wasted your money as they will stop working sooner or later.

You contradict yourself, you say not possible, than you say they will stop working so it must be possible?

I'll make a you tube video and send you the link. I have dish on there equipment, DTV on Roku and it works. Not what I'm trying to but whats been done. To clarify ROKU Boxes with 330 channels without an account, ex-DTV employee says they gave him 3000 streams to sell is it possible? Again not trying to but it has been done.

They are only working because they are authorized on someones account and will stop when they don't get the new code.
