Netflix says people just kind of rolled over and accepted the password sharing crackdown::Netflix subscriptions are up almost 6 million this quarter, suggesting we're all just too exhausted to fight this stuff

I wouldn't say people rolled over. A lot of people had the money and the means to pay. And only didn't because password sharing was easy. When Netflix crackdown on it they got their own subscription.

I would've left if I actually paid for it. Currently getting it for free thanks to T-Mobile.

Don't tell them, but I still use my parents' Netflix account. I live on the other side of the county.

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.
