Illegal IPTV infrastructure: how do they make it happen? costs? bandwidth?

I’m wondering how illegal IPTV services manage their infrastructure. This must require a lot of bandwidth, and I bet they are not using GCP or AWS.

What do you think they use? Do they find cheap VPS options with no egress charges? Do you think they are advanced enough to run Kubernetes, Ansible automation, etc.?

I’m curious to hear your thoughts on how this works…

Edit :

I researched an IP address I know hosts illegal IPTV. The ASN is allocated in Hong Kong, but the hosting company behind it is based in Bulgaria. The hosting provider offers unmetered bandwidth for $50/month

They may have some load balancing at the DNS level, with the domain attached to the IP as a CNAME that has its DNS hosted on Cloudflare
