It receives channels from satellite, in the DVB format, which are transmitted with no encryption.
Right now, the major FTA satellite is mostly religious and foreign programming.
You generally get little network or cable type programming. You can find backhauls and stuff like that.
What FTA is not, is not receiving encrpyted pay channels without subscription. The past several years a lot of people used hacked FTA receivers for that purpose, but they were simply stealing the TV programming, and caling it "FTA".
