Countering this was the main reason for the recent VLC update.

Ah yes, I followed that news when i was looking something up on kodi. the very next day, i came across similar posts, only this time, they included more players like vlc and others. no wonder vlc, kodi and a couple other players almost immediately followed it up with a new release/update.
