I'm using cloudflare tunnel to access my movie collection on selfhosted jellyfin. Jellyfin accounts are behind a strong password.

Considering it's on the web, how bad is it? I'm not thinking about attacks, can I be flagged for piracy or things? Where does the ISP stand?

My jellyfin and jellyseerr both servers are open to web.because so many people using it i can't sacrifice accessibility.but i have hardcore monitoring,alert system and emergency shutdown systems in place.

As long as passwords are strong it's usually fine, I use ldap through jellyfin on authentik and everyone gets a passphrase.

Same situation here but my users are all just friends and family so what I did was whitelist access from my own country and blacklist everything else. Not bulletproof of course but it did cut down on unintended traffic by nearly 100%
