I feel the need to point out that this is the 'closed-source' variant Time4Popcorn, and not the 'open-source' offering of PopcornTime at popcorntime.io. Closed being that although the source is available to download, global contribution and ability to share changes through commits, etc aren't possible.

Admittedly, the 'open-source' version is lagging (only slightly) behind this in development but with the exception of an Android app, they appear to have caught up.

Edit2: It's also worth noting that the two developments are taking different directions with regard to language used and implementation.

I would also suggest people be careful using a VPN service they know little about just because there is a box available to tick.

(I'm not affiliated with either obviously, just a PSA)
