Seriously, this site should worry Netflix.
This is a Serbian teenager who is older than 15 years.
Moreover, the young programmer does not seem too worried by the potential lawsuits that could result from the distribution of pirated content on his fork Popcorn Time.
"I live in a country where copyright laws are almost non-existent, and I simply mad", would he stated. And again according to The Verge, here are the motivations of the young man: "I do not want to earn a cent with this site. I do it just because I think that piracy is going to cause the explosion of the bubble streaming and the studios will realize it. "
These motivations are similar to those of the creators of the original Popcorn Time (whose identity leader has recently been revealed), according to which the piracy problem was created by an industry that sees innovation as a threat to its "ancient formulas ".
Next, it should be noted that this young programmer is not the first to have achieved a fork of Popcorn Time in web version. There was for example Popcorn In Your Browser, which however (according to The Verge), had only a fleeting success because it depended on third parties to operate.
