I recently ran into this issue when searching for an android app to watch some live sports broadcast from a well known (but dodgy) pirate streaming service.
I found dozens of forum posts and blog entries advertising untrustworthy packages of Kodi bundled with 3rd party binary plugins.
I know not to get involved with them but there are plenty of people who can't resist the allure of free pirate content and fall into these scam malware apps.
I feel bad for the Kodi guys :(
- ultramancool 10y agoThey're (mostly) not scam malware apps. But actual sources of pirated content, which sometimes have bugs or go offline due to legal issues or network issues. The Kodi devs just don't want to be taking flak for crappy plugins and pirate streaming services.
