You’re wrong, period. Stop trying to debate laws interpretation of a country you don’t even speak the language of.

LMFO. I actually speak English, French, Polish, and German (in proficiency order) and have an EU citizenship.

I just happen to live in the USA. So congrats, you're wrong again. Try not to resort to personal attacks next time. You'll look much less silly.

YOUR intention doesn't matter. You don't maintain the jellyfin code. The actual code designers specifically left the endpoints open for "compatibility". There was a conscious decision for those endpoints to not require authorization, and worse, IT'S DOCUMENTED. This is not like the case you're quoting. If accessing endpoints without auth was ever illegal, almost all IoT devices would be illegal, a good chunk of gaming and other services would be illegal, etc... This premise is asinine.

You realize that google and other sites regularly scan and capture direct links to websites without ever giving a shit about a login page somewhere else on the site. You don't see lawsuits against any of those crawlers, nor the people who click the crawled links when they return in a search result. This is the exact same premise.

Oh you insufferable rawgabbit. Even in the face of definitive proof, the only thing you care about is throwing a 4 paragraphs tantrum trying to twist every single word just to not say "OK, maybe I was wrong on that thing". I'm out.

I'm insufferable? You're the one relying on personal attacks to make your point. Then run away with tail between legs when I show you 1) how it's not the same as your case and 2) how other current internet operations WOULD be the same, and there's no lawsuits in regards to those things.
