I recently got a Synology NAS and I am trying to setup Emby. I wanna host a media server however, I wanna be able to access the emby location from anywhere and let say my mom access it. Just I wanna keep it secure. Should I use cloudflare?

    It’s been a while since I’ve heard anything about this but didn’t they change their ToS in regards to media on their network? I thought I read something about that clause getting removed at some point a few months back.

      Maybe. Personally it’s just another huge corpo that’s reading my traffic. There’s a dozen other middle men, but no doubt cloudflare wouldn’t hesitate to release all of my traffic at a moment’s notice.

      I believe media hosting is only against their ToS if you try and use the proxy service. In the DNS page you would want to make sure the clouds are not orange. Fair warning though now your IP is exposed to the public.
