if i was like “every time i cut steak into a different shape there’s a brand new word for it” everyone else would be like “no that’s stupid”. but we let pasta get away with anything.
i read the article on netflix that was like “we lost 2.6 billion dollars last year because of people sharing their password :’(((”
so lets see. netflix apparently has 139,260,000 accounts, with each and every one of those accounts paying anywhere from $13 to $16 a month, which means each account is generating about $156 to $192 every year, which all adds up to, unless i messed up my math, $21,724,560,000 generated every year. Twenty one billion dollars, at least.
so fuck you and fuck your crocodile tears lmao. you’re never going to make any of your bad decisions this seem justified.
You know what I’m still annoyed with this because no, Netflix, you did not lose a single fucking penny. You did not lose money from people sharing their accounts, they did not physically take the money from you. Your profits did not go down, they just didn’t rise as much as you wanted them to, and you consider that a catastrophic loss of billions of dollars. Fuck off.
Also there’s an assumption there that people who are password sharing would automatically pay for their own account if the measures suggested came into effect and worked and I promise you most people would just… go without at best and at worst actually start pirating again.
Also, like. Netflix has multiple profiles per account. They’ve practically got “password sharing” built into their system. Imagine if any other company started complaining that they were ‘losing money’ because people use their product as intended.
