It isn’t

I’ve never used a google account on it. That’s the point.
It is not necessary to be in the google ecosystem to use the shield (pro) to its full capabilities.
I take naps every Wednesday and never on other days of the week. This one simple trick has increased my odds of waking up on a Wednesday to 1/4!
If you aren’t connected to the internet when you set it up it should not require you to log in.
I’m not confident it does require login even with an internet connection on the shield pro, but it’s been a while since I set mine up.
I bought a shield pro last year and never once logged in to google during setup or any time after.
Aaaand the top comment shares the exact same sentiment I do 🤷
The post was removed and all of the top comments are about how fucked up it was to tweet that. HN is nazi bar confirmed?
I side load Plex from the direct download links in the forum (Plex pass is required for this I think but there are def other ways to get the apk). I do not run the shield as a sever as I have a dedicated box for that.
Nothing special about the setup at all, I just prefer a minimalist approach to software so I disabled everything on the shield that wasn’t necessary to run Plex.
E: should be clear this is a shield pro
I run a shield for Plex and have never logged into my google account on it. I’ve disabled play store and most google services. Also I keep the android on the stock version.
Works flawlessly.
Well yeah if you ignore the acting and only parse the dialogue in a vacuum.
