Netflix is launching its own ad tech platform only a year and a half after entering the advertising business.

      It’s like their password sharing crackdown made people accuse them of being out of touch and they respond like “out of touch? Us?! Lmao, watch this!”

        I am outraged as well, but arguably this is competition, and how many corpos with deep pockets can legitimately fight Google/Amazon without going broke. This feels like loss but with a really strong silver lining.

        I mean they’d be a lot less likely to be acting that way if their password sharing crackdown hadn’t worked like a charm. Netflix’s margins went way up after they did that.

        Pretty sure Netflix doesn’t give a fuck what people accuse them of as long as their books look good.
