Always has been.
Why? What did they do before?
They banned password sharing (family account) if everyone doesn't live in the same location sometime ago.
I don't see this as a dick move. The rules were clear from the start, they just started enforcing theme. It's not a bait and switch or something.
Ssh we're mad at netflix, you're not supposed to be defending them...
Shm yeah netflix may be scum, but enforcing password sharing policies, which had been part of the EULA from day 1, isn't scummy.
They marketed 4 streams. Not 4 seats. [And only getting 1 seat 4 times, which is fucking pointless.] That's a whole different meaning. No one reads the EULA so it doesn't fucking matter what horse shit Naziflix puts in the fine print.
Now watch as all the corporations that paused their advertising slowly return to the platform.
They were always going to. As long as Xitter has a user base with money to spend, the large corporations do not care. Anything they do like withdrawing advertising is all for show.
And after all, are you going to cancel your Netflix subscription over this? I actually probably would personally but my partner uses it quite a lot, so we're sticking around. Some people will cancel no doubt but nowhere near a critical mass that will affect their bottom line and they know it.
You would cancel your Netflix subscription because they advertise on X?
Fuck yes. They might as well advertise on Stormfront or Nambla or any other conservative site.
Fuck them. By spending money on a fascist platform, they are materially supporting fascism.
