A few days ago we echoed a story that left us quite perplexed. The most popular video-on-demand service in the country, Movistar + (YOMVI), was using content that was being taken directly from the Internet to subtitle its series, more specifically from the «Addict7ed» group, users who freely and for free subtitle audiovisual content for that everyone can enjoy it. However, something did not paint the matter well, it was illogical that a large company like Movistar used this type of trickery. The Movistar communication team has provided logical explanations on the subject, and is that the Spanish telecommunications company has been another affected in the matter.
It was the viewers of the great Shameless (US) series who took notice of the subtitle issue and it quickly went around the world. In fact, we (myself) echoed the matter as quickly as I could. But now Movistar has come to the fore and has made it clear to us what happened to the subtitling problems in the series, if we can call it a "problem", since they were perfectly subtitled, the problem lay in the source of it.
In a reply to the diary ABC, the Movistar + team has warned that it will be "the first and last time this happens", since they "never resort to pirated content." According to this part, It is the Movistar + subtitle provider who has caused the controversy. He says that sometimes the series are delivered subtitled from origin, but often they have to resort to distributors to embed them. It is this distributor who, instead of doing its job, subcontracted it to a third company, which is the one that definitively included these subtitles.
Movistar warns that they did not notice the error in the review procedures, but that they are going to take the necessary measures to solve this misfortune. A ten for Movistar, his quick action and explanation.
Sub-sub-sub-contracting in movistar ... it can't be
