The problem is getting the software in the first place. Popcorn Time #1 got bullied off the web, then sprouted two forks, neither of which could keep a stable url. So you better not have a single hitch in your web server. Otherwise that will be the first thing to go, and you'll end up wasting the rest of your development time playing cat-and-mouse across dns, onion addys, etc.
You missing greater part of the subject and context... Competent services and users can't be bullied off of anonymous overlay networks by anyone except perhaps GPA's that have nothing better to do. Clearnet is a joke compared to that general caveat. Which is why bittorrent is moving into the overlays... yes, they're tired of wasting their time with bullies and they have better things to do, including building and using stable, resistant, systems. That's just ops, is not giving up, but continuing to better advancing any of their philosophical ideas on piratepartiet, privacy, etc.

Beauty part: With great user base comes great anonymity sets and routing node counts, hence less responsibility. Considering who we are asked to be responsible to, and what they do with that supposed authoritah, win. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJXWaL9AAoJEECU6c5XzmuqGbQH/RB7/0Y55ugaBFMRQO7sqWCj WTcZKPTY5E8Lixb7zyhSZYGOxSbqIWpRfSCAIL5WFBipd9n0hAidY4VcXrt0PdkQ OTIusiLHXZx8P9+pdKDFIvX0z331OjXBbytDOKld5F9Z51PALvEM/g/Fsm/RkiFG H0O0fFGZ8iL6dyHNqfcn7yDIlsi0x8PDBbgIHArL0SqHmxeiP5zTXDZvpjwG6ilK VIvsZqe6M4a12mQaYADZ+JPdFVhPEplMiMTQW9WCDKVJK98Nfa1WagVRsvrJAxb6 F/fmsPHKEqL6MVRZIo8cGB9SKghxw8DVNPucHpwzrjbpksbcU70wUjkjqgLd4aA= =VWUX -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
