What kind of moron isn't hosting his own plex server?

The kind that did a cost analysis of buying their own hardware and running costs vs the cost of a VPS. Or the kind that doesn't have good uplink bandwidth and wants to share with family and friends.

You would have to be a fucking moron of the highest order to upload tons of illegal content to a cloud based server.

illegal

Movie collection?

You can have a perfectly legal collection, not give anyone else access and still be affected just because you use a particular host provider.
