And even if you had to make a legal / not legal binary choice, popcorn time wasn't legal. How do you check 4 times and not read MGM Studios, Inc. v. Grokster, L

Not everyone lives in the USA ;) I don't know, but it could very well be that there are precedents in their home country Argentina supporting the 'legal' conclusion.

  In Mexico, sharing this kind of IP is legal as long as it is not done for-profit ("sin fines de lucro"): http://www.regiosfera.com/es-legal-compartir-contenido-en-mxico/ http://www.regiosfera.com/es-legal-compartir-contenido-en-mx...

    In the Netherlands I believe any tool that is only used for illegal purposes is in itself illegal. For example hacking tools that are not meant for penetration testing would be illegal. Whether this would apply to applications providing copyright infringement on a huge scale, I don't know, though with the initially lost Pirate Bay case (which I have yet to see legal grounds for) it doesn't look too good.
