Popcorn Time web app targeted by Dutch copyright assoc.

Dutch copyright association Stichting BREIN is once again targeting Popcorn Time, this time about its web version. A newly developed plugin, called Torrents Time, allows users to illegally stream a movie or episode, without having to download it first, TechNieuws reports. According to TechNieuws, the Torrents Time website is currently hosted in the Netherlands, which is why BREIN can address it. BREIN already sent a warning to the creators of Torrent Time. It is as of yet unclear whether they are Dutch. BREIN requested their physical address information. Popcorn Time launched its web version, using this plugin last week.
