This seems to be an issue with the hosting provider, but it suggests hosting elsewhere and links instructions for migrating the server elsewhere.
Is it? We’re flying without all the information here, but a disproportionate number of servers on one infrastructure could resist alarm bells and lead to a naming of the entire IP range in conjunction with that hosting provider which no longer wants this kind of behaviour in it’s infrastructure.
It’s totally feasible, just conjecture. Possible deniability Andy adjusting you’re willing to be proactive as an organization matters legally.
Yes, as clearly indicated by this part of the linked notice:
Due to the large-scale violations occurring from that hosting provider, we will be taking action soon to block access and activity from Plex Media Servers hosted by that provider.

Not sure what you’re even trying to say here. There’s nothing here or elsewhere indicating that too many Plex servers on the same infrastructure is a concern. I haven’t read through the Plex TOS with a fine-toothed comb, but I don’t imagine there’s anything about making sure your server isn’t hosted too close to a bunch of others.
with that hosting provider which no longer wants this kind of behaviour in it’s infrastructure.
Has there been anything from the hosting provider to indicate this, or are you just making stuff up? The notice is pretty clearly Plex indicating they have an issue with something Hetzner is doing that violates their TOS.

Plex isn’t gaining any plausible deniability. They’re providing instructions to migrate the servers to other hosting, which is effectively saying “you can do what you’re doing, just do it over here instead.”
You’re blowing smoke, without looking anything up from the source.
Everything I’ve said was based on part of the link in the OP, which I did read.
Happy reading.
That link doesn’t include anything new and explicitly states as much in the first sentence. Not sure what you’re on about, but you’re not making the point you think you are.

It seems you’ve got it all figured! Cheers.
