It it just me or does the privacy policy actually say about playback data: As described above, client playback data does not identify what content was played, does not identify what server the content was played from, does not identify the owner of the server that the content was played from, and …

I can’t imagine Plex is going to admit wrongdoing without a court mandate, despite your logic being unassailable. This whole situation is a disaster. I can’t believe how hilariously bad the moderator posts are concerning this situation. “Our privacy statements about not collecting what you watch doe…

Even if it’s not covered by the privacy policy, this is just common sense. Don’t share data that you don’t have explicit, enthusiastic consent to share. This reeks of a weak excuse to collect more data on their premium users, at the expense of our friends and families privacy.

Plex’s position feels like hair-splitting to me. The heart of our trust relationship was that the information I entrusted to you about my media consumption and preferences was for my use only and did not leave my server. Automatically opting me in to have previously provided information - of any fo…

That is a convenient suggestion to make considering a Plex employee has not responded to that thread in a week.

[image] drzoidberg33: don’t have any information if it was watched on your server, at the cinema, on VHS or otherwise. It doesn’t know if you actually watched something or just marked something as watched and whether you even have that content on a server or not. I would mark something as wat…

I moved to Jellyfin yesterday. I’m running unraid but works the same on any OS really. Install it via your preferred method and mount the data/make libraries if it is installed directly to the OS then let it scan. Note that if you were following the TVDB’s naming scheme you will want to install the …

Just so everyone on this thread is aware Plex the company has shown by enabling this feature in the manner they did to have no care about user privacy. I am sure that there are people who work at Plex who are beating their heads against the wall about this knowing that this was going to happen. If e…

Plex needs to get on top of this like NOW. It’s turned into a major sh*tstorm on all big Plex social media groups Reddit, Facebook etc. if they are not careful this could be catastrophic

Best thing they could do is just roll it back and re-evaluate everything.

You are right but they will not course correct until they have a reason too. The only way we can make this happen is by forcing them through showing that the server admins will not stand for this stupidity. Turn on Jellyfin get it setup shutdown Plex. If enough people do this they will have no choic…

I’m sorry to say this but that’s a badly worded post and it reads like written in a rush and in a state of panic after the fact.

Not to mention that this is not how it really was.
