Is Popcorn Time legal? Risks of using Popcorn Time APK?

The legality of the Popcorn Time APK depends on the jurisdiction of the region from which you are accessing the APK/APP. In some countries, such as the United States, it may be necessary to use a VPN to access Popcorn Time so that you can use the app safely. In the case of Spain you will be able to access without installing a VPN on your device.

However, we must always be careful when downloading files through .torrent links. We must take certain risks that may jeopardize the security of our computer and compromise our private information on it.

Most malicious software is camouflaged in files that pretend to be what they really are not, and therefore, without realizing it, we can be infected with viruses. Moreover, it is possible that when sharing torrent files, at a certain moment we may be asked to deactivate our antivirus, since some firewalls or security tools do not allow the use of this type of client. Therefore, we must be extremely cautious at all times and be sure of what we are going to download through Popcorn Time.

Why do you need a VPN to watch Popcorn Time?

  • You need to watch streaming movies

Most movies on Popcorn Time are pirated, but not all. When you finish watching a content, Popcorn Time allows your device to act as a seed, that is, other people can download the movie from it.
If you want to continue enjoying free movies, it is best to hide your trail by using a VPN. A VPN will hide your Internet activities, and you can watch any movie on Popcorn Time without worrying about whether it is legal in nature or not.

  • Popcorn Time is not available in all countries.

Some countries have blocked Popcorn Time. For example, if you live in the United States you will not be able to access Popcorn Time. Many countries have a similar block, as this app violates intellectual property laws.
When you use a VPN, you hide your real IP and location. You will create a secure channel between your device and the Popcorn Time server, and since your real location will be hidden, your geographical restrictions will not exist with a VPN.

  • Your Internet speed could be limited by ISPs

Your ISP controls your data traffic. When you consume a lot of bandwidth, ISPs limit your network. This means that wherever you download movies via Torrent or watch streaming videos, ISPs can modify your connection speed.
If you want to enjoy the full bandwidth offered to you, you need to hide your activities from your ISP. You can achieve this through the use of a VPN. Since the ISP cannot monitor your activities when you use a VPN, it cannot limit your connection.
