Okay so serious question here.
Why does Plex get to make this decision?
I don’t use Plex. But if they CAN do this, it seems to me there must be some unnecessary cloud dependence in Plex.
A good media server IMHO does not need a cloud connection, it should just work on your local network.
Cryptography. As in, using encryption and encryption keys to authenticate me, rather than just a password.
