Sounds like they would use DNS hijacking to trick the set top boxes into downloading malicious code that disables the device.
I wonder if something as simple as having a VPN active on the device or the network would mitigate this since you would be avoiding the ISP DNS.
The mindset about privacy is just all wrong. It’s not an all or nothing game. Any privacy gain is a net positive to no privacy at all.
To many people conflate privacy with anonymity or try “accomplish” privacy without understanding what they want to be private from and why.
Yeah. Rule #1 of doing illegal shit on social media. Don’t tie that account to your identity.
I’d actually rate a proper Lineage OS install of 4 whole Android versions ago to be more private than stock.
Its always the lineageos stans that can’t take the truth.
Would a research paper change your mind?

According to this table, Google Pixels beat other devices listed there by far. Even Samsung S-series doesn’t look good
What about a security expert?
Overall, LineageOS does not leave a privacy-friendly or truly secure impression
It an article from bitdefender. How did you not expect they would promote their service?
Doesn’t matter, the threat is still real.
It can be both an ad and useful info.
You seem very proud to stand up for the other fascists in the room.
Why does it matter what Kanye tweets about if I enjoy his music?
Spouting antisemitic propaganda to millions of followers. Totally cool as long as his songs are hits. Got it. Strong moral compass you got there.
You are very much the person I figured would stand up for cock.li
Not the point in the slightest.
Lot of people feel the need to explain to me why a service that used domains like rape.lol is totally fine to support.
But sure, maybe you all just growing out of your pro hitler phase and I’m being unfair for not letting you grow.
This is just tiring. If their “honesty” makes you ok with their implicit acceptance of Hitler, rape, and genocide then do you man.
There isnt much to discuss. Your either OK with what these folks obviously stand for based on their past behavior or your not.

If you need to “grow” to figure out Hitler and rape aren’t cool, I don’t want to support your service.
More likely they realized any service worth their salt will blacklist those domains and any other domains associated with them so they tossed them.
Thats some bullshit. There is no context in which using domains like Hitler.rocks and rape.lol are acceptable.
If those are the types of people you find entertaining we have nothing to discuss.
Yes email is an insecure form of communication. They didn’t say that. They said they, as in the service in general, were not trustworthy. There is a difference. Now they are asking you to donate in non refundable crypto. If it smells like a rug pull ran by fascists it probably is…
Probably should look at the domains they were proud to use before supporting a meme service.
This is what I was referring too.
Honestly I hope it shuts down. This provider caters to racists, fascists, misogynists and the like.
Not to mention I don’t know why anyone would use a provider that was happy to warn people they aren’t trustworthy.
It sounds like they are making excuses to take their “war chest” of money for legal expenses and give themselves one final bonus. Would not be surprised if this donation request ends up being one extra final payout before they close the service and ride out into the sunset.
EDIT: lot of racists, fascists, and misogynists triggered by this comment lmao
Lol butthurt much? If you really didn’t care you wouldnt have felt the need to lash out like a child.
As good of a product as jellyfin might be, every time I run into someone promoting it I am reminded why I never use it.
Author says it should work even in airplane mode which is pretty cool.
Lol what help was provided? It was just Jellyfin spam that had nothing to do with what OP had asked.
If you just replaced Jellyfin with some obnoxious VPN voucher in that comment it would be obviously spam but because its something you like you can’t seem to see it.
If OP had been asking about Jellyfin and someone thought it was “helpful” to suggest they switch to Plex I would of said the same thing.
Yeah for sure. Maybe even something as simple as setting the network DNS to Quad9
