Obviously a lot of cats are wrong as it's Kodi getting a bad rep not Exodus etc. But this seems way more prevalent than even the Kazaa stuff that got shut down fairly quickly!
Kodi is a free to use piece of software, it's not something you can 'ban' as essentially it's done nothing wrong.
It's like blaming Windows for a computer playing the video.
The software is open-source as well, so anyone can get their hands on the code and develop their own version of the program.
The issue comes with the add-ons that link to material all over the web, those are the ones doing wrong but again are hard to shutter because they don't hold any of the media themselves, so if they feel any 'heat' the devs quickly shut down the project and open up a new one under a different guise.
