Plex Will Block Media Servers at Abuse Prevalent Hosting Company | TorrentFreak (torrentfreak.com)

In an email to customers who run Plex servers at the large German hosting company Hetzner, Plex said that access will be blocked next month. It’s not clear if Hetzner is the only hosting company this applies to, but several customers confirmed that they received the same email.

Has anyone here on Lemmy got this notice? Self-hosting is still in the green, but with this precedent who knows what Plex could do later.

Wasn’t it Plex that led to LastPass getting breached?

I mean, why isn’t everyone using open source at this point? Companies are just clamming to suck up as much money as possible from people still stupid enough not to learn from what every other company has done! 🤦‍♂️

Lifetime passes vs monthly subs. FOSS equivalent product don't exist considering live TV guide, default SSL security, integration with settop media boxes, etc that Plex offers... jellyfin is close but far from the decades of polish and half baked features Plex have added
