Apologies if I seem naive but what are some of the beneficial use cases of this service that can justify placing personal information on the internet? I am not trying to knock this, just trying to evaluate whether I should use it.
1. Sync all devices that you use inside your home. Kodi Library already does this.
2. Sync devices when you are traveling. But I cannot access my media from home when traveling so I cannot watch that media to track progress anyway.
3. Do 2 above with Internet sources. Are there legal streaming sources where you can do this (without having to manually enter status on Trakt.tv which seems not worth the trouble)
(If illegal sources which Kodi does not sanction, it is stupid to use service like this anyway not because you can set privacy so no one sees it but because there is proof stored on their servers which is not incriminating by itself but can be used in conjunction like the use of road toll data to bolster a case of piracy, so I am discounting this use case entirely)
What is the best use case for people who use this?
Thanks for any considerate replies.
