    Seeing the replies in this thread it kinda makes me wonder what Plex actually has to do for these zealots to quit using their platform.

    Like do they literally have to steal naked pictures of you and pass them around the office? Like wtf.

      My guess when the MPA buys plex data and they have what movies everyone has on their servers.

      FWIW apparently this is talking about their free content, not about user content.

          It does, yeah.

          If they are providing the content, they can see that they are providing the content and that much is obvious.

          If you are providing the content, you wouldn’t expect that they can identify what you are watching.

          That’s the difference to me, yeah.

            Mmmmm gross.

            I’ll leave you with this, though. Shit like this is all goalposts. For now it’s just “their” content and not yours. But in 12 months it’s gonna be all content. And what excuse will you make for them, then?

              I’ll switch to jellyfin like a normal adult who actually reads the updates and not a reactionary who just reads thread titles.
