Please do not resubmit this app or similar apps in the future. Any facilitation of piracy or illegal downloads is not allowed in our program. In reviewing your app, we determined that it can be used to facilitate the piracy or illegal download of content. This e-mail is regarding the Kodi app that you submitted for sale through the Amazon Mobile App Distribution Program. I encourage you to contact Amazon and contact the Amazon Appstore and voice your displeasure with the removal of Kodi. It’s unfair for Amazon to punish Kodi’s open nature due to the actions of third-parties who are outside of the Kodi team’s control. The Kodi team, who consist entirely of volunteers, have gone to great lengths to try and stop their app from being associated with piracy. While they’re at it, Amazon should remove Opera and all of the other web browsers in the Amazon appstore since they too “facilitate piracy” just as much as Kodi. There’s no reason for Amazon to promote one app while removing the other. Plex also has unsupported unofficial add-ons that provide access to pirated materials. Kodi does not facilitate piracy anymore than Plex, which Amazon advertises on the Fire TV Stick box. Users who wish to use Kodi in nefarious ways must go out of their way to install unsupported unofficial add-ons that are completely out of the Kodi team’s control. Kodi’s official add-on repository, accessible from within the app, also lacks any pirating functionality. As the app existed in the Amazon appstore, Kodi did not posses any pirating capabilities. After inquiring, the Kodi team have now heard back from Amazon and have informed me that the reason given for the app’s removal is Amazon’s absurd determination that the app can “ facilitate the piracy or illegal download of content.” (See Amazon’s full email below.) Amazon has falsely labeled Kodi as a piracy app, while today, the Google Play Store has embraced Kodi by officially approving it into their appstore.Īmazon’s false labeling of Kodi as a piracy app is, no doubt, a result of the numerous third-party piracy add-ons written to run on top of Kodi. The removal came as a shock to both the Kodi community and its developer team, who were not given prior notice of the removal, nor the courtesy of an explanation. Last week, Amazon suddenly removed Kodi from the Amazon appstore.
