I honestly cannot believe they did this. Plex team, you knowingly turned on a feature to share MY private watch history with people who I happened to allow access to my server? This was a horrific error in judgement, and so based on the past few years of “updates”, must be financially motivated.
I hope a few admins here are Privacy lawyers and can file a class action lawsuit. For some us, it’s not so bad. For others, it could be deeply embarrassing. What happens if you’ve only invited a friend to a subset of your library, but you watch something in a private section you haven’t shared with anyone. Are you telling me that will come up in their email and this is ok?!
Plex, reverse this immediately and never do something this stupid and immoral again.
