Damn, that's fricked up.

Why would it be limited to Plex though? Or is it any streaming service? What about Netflix or Amazon?

The article says it also happened on some Foxtel TV app in Australia. Apparently, this ad injection "feature" wasn't supposed to be turned on for Foxtel or Plex, so it was either a mistake or a software bug or an "experiment" or whatever. I just think it's sad that the feature exists at all.
