Is The TAZ Addon Legal?
It’s impossible for TROYPOINT to determine whether these unverified add-ons/apps hold the proper licensing.
If and when an add-on is deemed illegal, we notify our users immediately and update reports on our Website to reflect that information.
At first glance, it would appear that TAZ is distributing copyrighted works without consent.
The end-user is responsible for all content accessed through unverified add-ons. For verified options, see our list of legal streaming apps.
Is it Safe to Use?
Before using this add-on it is important to scan their repository URL with VirusTotal. Here is the screenshot of the scan results.
VirusTotal did not find any suspicious files within the Octopus repository URL. However, we should always protect ourselves when streaming content from unverified 3rd party add-ons.
The best way to protect yourself is with our #1 Ranked VPN Provider. A VPN will provide you with an anonymous connection while using questionable add-ons such as this. See our VPN on Firestick tutorial for more information.
