Plex has announced a massive price increase on the service’s Lifetime Plex Pass. On July 1, the lifetime subscription option will go from $249.99 to $749.99, an increase of 200%. The price hike will only apply to new subscribers, with no changes to monthly or annual subscription pricing.
I mean, that’s not great, but it’s also not very concerning to me. Like the risk of someone doing that, and the potential harm resulting seems minimal to me.
The problem is that every single person uses the Trash Guide to set up their system. And the guide includes instructions on how to set up your file names.
You’re correct that in isolation the risk is minimal. But nearly every setup is using the trash guide’s suggested naming scheme, which makes guessing it dead simple.
I’m not familiar with the trash guide. I set mine up with swizzin community edition.
Edit: either way though, what is the real risk? Someone streams your media without your permission?
