In late 2023, the first major domino fell. Police arrested a man in who was allegedly the "proxy host" for several major piracy rings, including 9xmovies.
The operation of 9xMovies and similar sites often involves a complex network of servers, proxy sites, and mirror URLs to evade law enforcement and copyright holders.
