Netflix password crackdown fuels jump in subscribers

Personally I don't use Netflix but I think this should serve as a reminder that the internet isn't a good barometer for real life opinions. You'd have thought Netflix was about to Blockbuster itself if you went off Reddit comments alone.
Anyway, the real question is how bad is their churn rate. If their numbers jumped up but only last a few months before cancelling, then this isn't really that great. They really want those numbers to stick.

Taking storytelling to a whole new level!

I call bullshit. Maybe a jump in new subscribers, but not a jump in overall subscribers. The Netflix catalog is pretty much garbage at this point anyway.

We cancelled. We got Disney Plus and we share my brother’s Amazon Prime and I realised that we hadn’t used Netflix in over a month. We’d opened it a few times and browsed for while before switching to another service.
Netflix is absolutely awful now, we would just spend an hour browsing just trying to find something tolerable. The last thing that was good was Squid Games, and that was only good not great.
Tiger King was fucking mint though.

I read somewhere that people were cancelling their subs, but people who had access to someones account, that was logged in on a device could just reactivate from said device. I bet they're measuring those numbers.

Oh really?
Well I cancelled mine, dunno what the rest of you are playing at!
Sshhh! We don’t talk about the cancelled subscriptions because that doesn’t reassure the shareholders. Yes, we lost two customers for every one we gained, but now you’re just trying to make us look bad..
😂
We also cancelled our (way back, as soon as news of this came out) and have been on the whatever-arr system off of a friend's server since.
But it really doesn't matter. Too many people doing the opposite. I'd have at least expected other services like HBO to see a surge, but instead, no, people are just loyal or some shit.
