I haven't used netflix since this happened, but apparently its just the app on my xbox that stopped working? Its the only device I watched netflix on and I can't say that I miss it.

I didn't use Netflix for like a year or so. We had a family shared account and I kinda had to check the App to confirm if the password sharing thing was true or not in Germany. I think my family members didn't notice at all. Grade A streaming service.
I get upset about a lot of things, but the end of password sharing isn't one of them. Complaining about it is just about the most privileged, entitled thing I can imagine.
I did rolled over to reach my phone to unsubscribe. Next thing i know, i'm socializing. Best weeks in years.
This is the generation of adults who, when younger, were likely candidates to have been in the pic of Steam where everyone was "boycotting" mw2 but also like 80% of them were playing it anyway. They just grew up and got their own netflix accounts lol
The gaming industry has seen this sentiment of "I'm going to get you with my wallet, billion dollar corporation!" for decades now and it falls flat every. single. time. No commentary on whether that's good or bad, just an observation I'm sure most of us have made who have been around long enough.
