Plex is starting to enforce its new rules, which prevent users from remotely accessing a personal media server without a subscription fee.

    *only for external streaming.

    You can cut it off from the internet and stream in your house locally for free still.

    End from any external streaming perspective, they are hosting a repository with your connection and port info, so your external friends can connect without you needing to manually configure or update their settings when you make a local change. Plus they are hosting stream relays for those that are unable to make a direct connection. To me, seems fair they’d ask for payment for that service.
