Netflix has become an advertisement platform for certain companies/ideologies/people rather than a media streaming platform.

Which is a problem because it has no like/comment functionality that can (theoretically) filter false/exaggerated advertisement.

On the other hand, which media platform is actually not an advertisement platform? That's a whole another debate.

Netflix is a business. If you think they should be supporting your ideology dream on. They are making good money right now.

Netflix earned a net profit of $1,353 million in the second quarter of 2021, which is an 88% improvement over the result a year earlier.

Market cap is going to be > $200B.

When the tides of user preference change - they will change with them.

I am not looking for a platform to support my ideology, in fact I do not possess any ideology.

I am not talking about Netflix being a successful business either. Being profit driven does not justify false behavior.

If you don't believe you have an ideology, you just don't know what ideology means. Your original comment is very ideological in itself.

Can you please tell me which ideology does criticizing the UI choices or the content strategy of a web streaming platforms belong to?
