          “All your data” lol

          I care about my actual private data. My email that I hand out to dozens of sites isn’t that. What movies/tv shows of Plex’s - not my collection - isn’t that. It’s definitely not an issue when it’s opt-in like this is.

      Nobody is gonna be using a quantum computer to “crack email hashes” of Plex users in a few years… I’m not even sure there is a speedup to hash cracking with quantum computers.

      But depending on the hashing algorithm used, it’s likely pretty easy to crack hashes of email addresses today with a normal computer. They’re not particularly high entropy.
