Adventures in Cord Cutting → Re: plex scares me

I've never registered Plex. And you could use a VPN or Proxy so that Plex can update your media tags, or just manually update your media tags yourself.

Plex does not require a connection to serve content locally.

so that's your best argument?
use plex since your privacy is being compromised in a dozen other ways already - LOL

If you think allowing Plex to sync your media tags is scary, check out firefox add-ons no script, ublock, cookie whitelist, and of course make sure to use your own host file, and secure your DNS look ups.

Check out xprivacy for android and do be cautious with your smartphone. It leaks much more than Plex
