Turki Alalshikh believes lowering the price of pay-per-view (PPV) events will reduce piracy.

Dana White, however, would rather hunt down and prosecute pirates (like this poor sap) who illegally stream UFC cards. That might have some dastardly do-badders running for cover, but Streameast News Network (SNN) flat-out dared White to make good on his threat.

“Come and get it then Dana,” SNN handlers posted on Twitter. “There’s a difference between free and affordable. Make Dana White’s net worth being over a half billion yet his employees have to pay for medical out of their own pockets make sense. It’s time for him to pay the fans back and the fighters more.”

Not surprisingly, fans who depend on SNN for their streaming needs were practically begging Twitter reps to avoid “poking the bear,” in fear that UFC’s legal eagles would find a way to close up shop. It’s worth noting that Elon Musk, who acquired Twitter in late 2022, also serves on the Endeavor board of directors.

Just watch out for those “online terrorists.”
