But the blog post from Plex was specifically talking about charging for remotely accessing your own files. So your point is irrelevant to the discussion.

How is it irrelevant? Plex offers a bunch of services that cost them money that we don’t use, so they jacked up prices for streaming our own data.

It’s irrelevant because even Plex themselves made no mention of their in-house streaming stuff. The discussion is about being charged to view your videos, hosted on your own self-hosted server, viewed on your own device.

I disagree. Sometimes you need to look at the situation as a whole in order to understand the motivation.
