I would like to share my jellyfin movies and tv shows with my friend. I was thinking about allowing only his IP address to connect to my jellyfin server.

Is it a crime? Can I be arrested for this? I do not plan on running a mega operation for hundreds of people.

Is that ok to do?

    To apply that analogy: It wouldn’t be against the law for your friend to watch it. If this was the case. Your court case would be different. You’d be in the role of both YouTube and the uploader here, since you operate the Jellyfin and also uploaded the movie there.
