    The only backlash they listen to is the one to their wallets. Remember Netflix password crackdown backlash?

      The backlash where Netflix’s profit went up and it was generally a success and Netflix didn’t change anything at all…?

      Or was there another one I missed? Or am I confused?

        That’s exactly my point. All this ‘widespread backlash’ doesn’t amount to anything unless it hurts their bottom line. There was a huge backlash when netflix introduced password sharing crackdown, but it ended up a success for them.

          Oh, I didn’t get what you meant I guess because people kept saying they were cancelling their accounts, I didn’t think of it as a non-action backlash.

          There, of course, weren’t really that many people upset or cancelling

      Sounds like we need to get the ELF and the RTR folks on a conference call.
