It's either encrypted, or carried in some way your TV can't receive it, the box decodes it, or converts it to the correct system for your TV.

On anything remotely modern, it's likely to be a digital system, which lends itself easily to encryption - there are many different methods used.

if u can see the picture, but it is very distorted and jumps all over the place, it is easy to "steal"
