Sorry friend, but reasoning with these people is always changing.
If you think it’s ok and you’re not from the affected demography, you can’t have a voice and “you’re probably white”.
If you think it’s ok and you’re actually from the affected demography, you’re just too dumb to understand your condition and have to let the white saviors and the “right” people from your demography explain to you why you should be angry and offended at everything.
Still, if you were sharing with 3 friends before, it’s a 4x price spike for you.
Yeah, and in cases where there is a monopoly or quasi-monopoly of a product it becomes really exploitative.
But in this case in particular, I’m gonna have to say it’s the fault of the users.
They chose to pay more for a worst product that had already been declining in quality steadily, when there are tons of other streaming services with good content.
I mean, the Netflix password sharing crackdown was a vote put on the users to decide if it’s a good thing to do or not.
And it appears that the results are good, since they are reporting subscriber growth and more revenue. Now every other service will follow because, otherwise, they’d just be wasting untapped profits.
I don’t like this profit maximization companies are trying to do, but one thing is clear: people prefer to pay more for the extra convenience than to stand their ground in their principals.
Even if people like us stand our ground, most won’t even care (I can see it in my personal relationships as well).
In the middle of this controversy there is just one thing I don’t really understand: why haven’t they banned the offending account?
The term at least since the 90s means to modify stuff to your heart’s content and literally creating something new, unique and personal.
Idk where you went to get that “can’t invent anything of substance” thing, but you might want to check your internalized racism.
