I dont see how this could be problematic. There is nothing illegal done here.

Reading these comments sounds like people think we're in China.
Next we're going to be arresting people who make knives, because you know, people can use them for illegal activities.

Let's be honest: what percentage of people use this type of video streaming to watch content they have rights to watch and what percentage are using it watch content they don't have rights to watch?
My best guess is that a larger portion of people used Popcorn Time to watch copyrighted materials than people used their knives to injure or kill someone.
I agree that the tools isn't illegal but I think it's fair to be honest about it's most likely purpose.
