So, I'm guessing Netflix isn't looking forward to rolling out password sharing crackdown rules in the US huh?

From what I had read, it was the first or second week of April and no new updates to the password sharing crackdown have come about, and, nothing has been rolled out to the US. Gee, I wonder why that could be. Maybe the fact that most Americans will just up and drop Netflix?

This has me laughing so hard because the MSM says things like, "there will certainly be fallout, but it won't be that bad" Sounds like wishful thinking to me. I believe more than 50% of Americans will cancel Netflix, I believe Netflix knows how bad it will be and doesn't want to face it. So they roll it out to all these other places instead. I get that they are a business, it just seems real unfair to not roll it all out at once to everyone.

I think they're using other countries like testing grounds. Try it there, see how bad it goes, and use that to determine if they should do it in America, which is a bigger percentage of their overall clientele. But yeah, I think the majority of Americans will either switch to a different service or just go back to pirating things like they did before Netflix came along. We're willing to pay for the ease and quality of having all of our movies and shows in one place, but if we don't all have access to it, pirating is just the more appealing offer. And in a terrible economy like this, we can't afford to have 3+ Netflix accounts, 3+ HBO Max accounts, 3+ Disneyplus accounts, etc...
