Spanish here: we had shared accounts for every platform in our workplace. HBO, Disney, Netflix, Movistar, Filmin... As soon at Netflix started the threats, we talked about keep it and try login through a proxy or getting it out of our pooled accounts. Each of us was only following one Netflix show, two at most, so we got rid of it.
Not salty, it just doesn't make sense anymore if you already have four or more platforms.
Wait, so everyone at work was using the same account? You're making this sound like a rational move, from Netflix.
Maybe? They lost a subscriber.
Depending on how much it cost to deliver that content, assuming netflix is running near 24/7, it may still be a win.
