MADRID — A Europol operation during last summer's European Championship and Paris Olympics dismantled a network of several hundred providers of illegal streaming of sports and other pirated content. Spain's top soccer league announced the results Thursday. La Liga says it cooperated in the investigation. The European Union's law enforcement agency identified more than 560 resellers of pirated content that included streaming of movies, series and TV channels. More than 100 suspects were identified and 11 were arrested.
