Popcorn Time Users Can Stream Pirated Movies to Browsers

Open source project Popcorn Time — considered by some to be the Netflix for pirated movies — has now spawned a simple new means of streaming movies to browsers. A site called Popcorn Time In Your Browser is offering an in-browser app that reportedly makes it easier to access pirated movie streams. According to TechCrunch, the app works similarly to the desktop version of Popcorn Time, “remotely streaming torrent files from YTS through Coinado.” By using the app, no torrent files are stored on the user’s machine. “Torrent streaming services like Popcorn Time have always existed in a legal gray area. On one hand, a viewer isn’t downloading the movie to his computer, yet is still watching something that clearly wasn’t paid for.”
