Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

The reason I chose the word "promise" is because people often, especially in discussions regarding Netflix latest nice, tend to forget/ don't understand what it means when you sign an agreement.
I personally don't care if people get angry if Netflix hold them liable to the agreement they signed out if they get angry after getting a parking fine.
Regarding the ToS, do you mean that Netflix never made a change in the terms regarding sharing account before enforcing the new stuff or do you agree that the terms now regulate who you can and who you can't share your account with?
I don’t know how much clearer I can make this. We are talking about what is written and what is functionally happening. It’s like jaywalking. If you jaywalk, and someone said “jaywalking is illegal,” you would roll your eyes because literally everybody does it.
All of these services say it’s one account per person (again, not a household). But none of them enforce it. So for the last 16 years Netflix has functionally not had that rule. I do not understand how you are confused by this concept. I feel like I’ve been pretty clear about it and it’s self evident. It is pointless to say “you’re not allowed to share accounts“ when it was rampant and Netflix did not care. We aren’t idiots, we know they are choosing to enforce it now. That’s literally what this entire discussion is about.
So what do you think is the reason why people are mad at Netflix? Is it because Netflix didn't stop some customers from not following the agreement earlier or is it because the customers can't continue to not following the agreement?
Dude I have explained it so many times. I'm done lol
