Previously, an MPA takedown notice pulled Popcorn Time's GitHub repository offline. Popcorn Time filed a counternotice, with success.
Snippet:
Earlier this month, an MPA takedown notice pulled Popcorn Time's GitHub repository offline. The Hollywood group, which also represents Netflix, argued that the code facilitates mass copyright infringement. While that may be the case, Popcorn Time filed a counternotice arguing that they own the code. Faced with contradicting requests, Github has now reinstated the repository.
