Plex Server Web Client Displays Content (Not Mine) Prior to Login

No, our servers should not be an advertisement banner for Plexs’ own streaming content. I brought Plex to manage and host my own content, end of.

In this case, it wouldn’t.

My proposal is as such:

Anon user goes to https://plex.mydomain.com.

User gets the following prompts:
free

So they never actually view anything on your server, it all goes back to how it used to work + the added benefit (to Plex) of allowing their free content to work on their web player via a redirect to plex.tv.

Alternatively, we need people to vote on Restrict Plex Web to LAN Networks

Apologies for the crappy Photoshop job, haven’t used it in years!
