Didn’t they report it was an opt out feature?

Or just like, don’t enable the feature? I got the pop-up on my plex server and I clicked the “fuck no” button

I suppose that’s true, but it literally throws a giant screen up about it and you can click “no”.

That’s not ok.

Same 😂
I was a bit pissed when I got the pop up though - I was remoting into another machine running at a pretty small 800x600 resolution, and it was a pain to scroll around to the No Thanks 🤦♂️

I chose to opt out and yet I’m still seeing “user activity” from my users on the watch page of each and every title in my library.

Server admins have always been able to see what users are watching

Correct but not like this. It’s displaying this info in the libraries on each individual movie/show page as well as sending me a “week in review” email. I’ve already opted out so why am I still seeing this? Do 3rd parties need to opt out for me to stop receiving notifications about them on my account? That’s absurd.

Per the article It’s an “opt-out” feature, which means they turned it on by default.

Yeah, it did give a pop up allowing me to opt out, but still kinda shady
