I was suspended by Disney+ for accidentally turning on my VPN to a location they didn't like...I instantly cancelled my subscription. I couldn't believe the suspension message, banned a paying user... Never again.

What location was that, out of curiosity, and what was the reason given?

especially if you're on arm linux, it seems

I find this "easier" argument amusing.

Any solution that requires me to reach behind my TV and plug in my laptop is already not easy.

With Netflix you just punch your password into your smart TV and you're watching content.

i can stream torrents from my phone to tv without hassle

You don't have to, I can use my Android TV to stream torrents in a Netflix-like GUI using public torrents. My father uses it and he's not very "techy".

It even syncs progress across devices, works on all my devices (doesn't work in the Apple ecosystem).

Would you mind sharing the software you’re using?
