Did they just mention that they were being broadcast on the internet? :lol: And that they're sorting a replacement?

Media trying to access the scene now.

The only way it can be switched off is if the Boston PD convinces Ustream to shut it off, as it's simply an audio feed from a scanner. BPD radios are not encrypted.

There's no way ustream is going to shut down what might be the most subscribed simultaneous audio stream in the history of the internet. They'll be making a fortune from those ads alone, not to mention the exposure.

I'm aware, the PD could force UStream to take all of them offline. They mentioned shutting down a "downlink", I don't know what that is.
