What is netflix but DRMed content? I pay for netflix too. It's just a shame that content need to still be localized and movie selection is limited.

Yes I was the previous owner of popcorn-team, but for some reason the other owner kicked everyone before closing the repo and the website. popcorn-org and popcorn-time.tv are the new project I maintain.

I worked on the project since the first developers left. I am the one who fixed and released all versions since 2.5. I guarentee that http://popcorn-time.tv is mine and the build are safe. Source used are https://github.com/popcorn-org/popcorn-app/releases/tag/v0.2... .

It is because I'm using cloudflare plugin to minify everything. Source used by the server are available at https://github.com/popcorn-org/popcorn-site. Pochoclín is still present in index.html!

Thanks a lot Zach. I was pretty sure that Github was not involved in any way with this. Your support team has been helpfull by answering any of my question. Now I just need to deal with internal drama and get the project back...

The tags were lost. Master branch is still 0.2.8.1.

Developer here.

I woke up this morning and everything was down. We are two developper on this project with admin right on the popcorn-team organisation. The other developper (jduncanator) is the only one with access to the web hosting.

That said, lets not speculate. I wasn't able to contact the other developer yet since he is in another timezone and probably in bed at that time.

Most likely, github has nothing to do with all that. Github staff were well aware of popcorn time and starred it many time. If they would have took down our project I think they would have took down all the forks with it. Which is not the case.

I'm trying to get the repo up again. Meanwhile I have my personal repo up to date: https://github.com/isra17/popcorn-app.
