Plex update raises concerns over potential sharing of porn viewing habits | Be careful what you watch::undefined
Lmao what the fuck Plex.
Who the fuck thought it would be a good idea to have this thing be opt out instead of opt in? Well actually, I’m sure they realised that nobody would opt in because nobody fucking wants this garbage. So the only option is to make it opt out, right guys?
Can I opt out for all the users in my library?
No idea, sorry.
Bought a lifetime pass from Plex, probably going to switch to jellyfin now
That’s a pretty misguided decision, but who is hosting their own porn?
Ever since pornhub nuked their library, people start filling up their homework folder again so they won’t most their favorite homework data.
People put the media they’ve downloaded onto their Plex server. If some people are downloading porn, it makes sense that they’d be putting that on their Plex server too.
monke see video, monke put in library
P0rnHub
I can see someone using Plex/Jellyfin to host their sex work media, like a “Netflix for my boobs/cock/ass/etc.” since both let you manage who has access and what not.
That said, it’s probably a bad idea for that, and general porn.
Yet another reason to be thankful for Jellyfin.
a bit buggy, but i have full control.
Here’s a thread from yesterday so people can see the over 200 comments already made on this subject (links in my instance, the OP of that post’s instance, and the host instance):
That’s fucking hilarious.
What’s the identifier referenced in the IMDB database? Some kind of unique content id?
Exactly. IMDB assigns an identifier to each piece of content, and Plex (or Jellyfin/Emby/etc) use that to pull metadata.
I’m just now getting acquainted with Plex myself. I have no desire to open it up to beyond my local network nor other users and I’m guessing that’s a good decision based on these kind of feature rollouts I’m hearing about.
Anyone concerned about this should look into Stashbox.
