Whoever publishes or helps publish forbidden videos bears the sin of everyone who watches or hears them. And whoever brings a satellite dish into their home, knowing that their family will use it for forbidden things, is sinful, because they are assisting them in sin. As for participating in groups whose owners spread falsehood, if there is a benefit in doing so by reducing evil and spreading good, and no corruption in religion or morals results from it, then participation is permissible; in fact, it may be obligatory or recommended.
