We definitely hear and understand your concerns and really appreciate all the thoughtful feedback we’ve received over the last 24 hours. We’ve been working on this for weeks and many of us who use Plex every day have had to work through this carefully to get ourselves comfortable. That said, many of you have raised good points that (somehow!) we didn’t consider, so we are going to make some important changes to address those.
