Dan Morgan published the leading satellite TV hacking newsletter, Satellite Watch News. He also produced the DB1 radio show and a series of related videotapes. In 1997 DirecTV filed a cease and desist order to stop publication of the newsletter. When Dan refused on First Amendment grounds, DirecTV (owned by General Motors) sued him for a million dollars. Unable to afford effective counsel, Dan lost the case and nearly everything he owned. Dan Morgan now operates a small network consulting firm in Michigan.
