Ahhhh, So this is why they’re really cracking down on banning plex shares.
Source?
Oh hey! Actually I did find a news article. I was curious if I could https://medium.com/@divitia/what-are-plex-shares-why-they-were-banned-f5a43735ffbb
Edit. Just finished reading it… Eh… “News” might be a bit of a stretch for the article.
Ahhh… Yeah definitely a bad idea to advertise you’re breaking the TOS on a public website
I mean the source I have is not really particularly great, Just my first hand account and what I was told about why we were moving to a different system. It was just that I was part of a plex share where all of us were getting banned for it being associated with the the Plex share. So the plex share moved over to using emby.
Thanks, that’s fair. I share my Plex with about five people who use it often but I’m waiting for the day it goes away.
I missed that news. What’s happening?
Our plex share had to move over to emby. And then they were kind of going through in systematically banning people. So a lot of people just got banned for pirated content.
They got banned for selling access to pirated content.
I went through the same thing with the share I was on.
Plex biting the hand that fed them. There’s no reason to use Plex over anything else at this point.
