  Thanks! Just don’t forget to cancel and end up feeling like an idiot. I think it’s possible to cancel the next day and still watch for the rest of the month. At least it was last time I did it.

  I have all the skill and info needed to pirate anything I want safely and easily. I still use your method.

  #1 stats are recorded and they can see what those of us who only buy one month a year watch. #2 it’s easy and $18 a year isn’t a bad price for the shows and movies I am interesting IMO. #3 there is a certain joy in binging and cancelling after one month that pirating cannot provide.

  PS: I kinda like checking in on the Netflix interface once a year just to see what people are dealing with.

  I keep jellyfin up to date in a container and forward tcp/8920 on my router to the container. Easy and plenty secure. People in this thread are wildly overthinking it.

  Yep. After you ban all the easy to spot ones you’re still left with far too many hard to ID bots. At least if your site is popular and large.

  I’m definitely not immune but sometimes an ad is annoying enough I decide I’m done with that company for a few years at least.
