    It’s not really degrading functionality there is it. It’s a feature that no one wants and is annoying and badly thought out but you can turn it off but they haven’t disabled any functionality to add this feature

      I feel that for a platform that is commonly used for pirated content, having telemetry that shows exactly what content people have is probably bad.

      Next they’ll start selling that info to the MPAA so they can sue individual users.

        They will never sue users, you can not prove the user doesn’t own the corresponding Blueray, etc.

        That, and it’d completely destroy the company, like in an instant, gone.

      So it’s just more unnecessary bloat
