This is maybe a little paranoid but... i have a jellyfin server that i let some family members use. one of them intends to use an app for apple tv, which i think is swiftfin or something like that. i am a bit skeptical about smart-TVs and the data they phone home with, so i was wondering if there is any chance that i could be compromised due to the linux isos i host on jellyfin due to some sneaky smart-TV stuff?

Ok thanks! The price of not really knowing how things work is apparently paranoia cries in technical illiteracy

Nothing wrong with asking a question, especially when you're talking about devices that are notorious for sending every scrap of data they can gather to everywhere. (Looking at you, Roku.)
