How to be innocent (not really): Step 1. Insist that users absolutely MUST use your cloud server for every login into a self-hosted tool on their own hardware. Step 2. Have shit security. Step 3. Ow wow, now users’ data is all over your systems! Hackers clap their hands and do a happy dance. Step 4. Send out “we’re sowwy” email.

You are not logged in. If you use a Fediverse account that is able to follow users, you can follow this user.
Keep in mind that the only reason they deny you the ability to log in to your own local service with your own local sign-in method is that they may upsell you on their cloud junk. If there’d be no cloud account involved - your data would not be at risk and/or leaked. They endangered your privacy for marketing purposes.
If you have not moved off of Plex - do it now. This company is fully rotten.
The email they sent out has
reply-toaddress that conveniently does not work…
Ah, “just a prank bro” argument. This is how ANTI-privacy corporations erode the level of expectations. Firefox, as a privacy advocate should absolutely NOT do that. If the choice is between being respectful of your users and being dead - I’d rather see it dead. We already have Microsoft Edge and a dozen other bs browsers that treat us like cattle. I think the general sentiment is that Firefox does not do that - or was not supposed to, anyway.
