I like that they give everyone an exact date to cancel their membership.

After that comes the part where the AI hallucinates a world where advertising guidelines don't exist and gets the company sued for some very illegal advertising.

What the fuck is up with that image of Wednesday?! It doesn’t look like Ortega’s Wednesday to me. Is it ai generated?

I canceled Netflix, and then soon after moved from Verizon to t-mobile. I got Netflix "free" through t-mobile, so I logged back into my "cancelled" account like I'd never left. Netflix raised the price and t-mobile passed it on, so I was paying $4.50 for Netflix. They raised the price a couple of more times, I think, and then a couple of months ago they raised it again, and I was paying $11.00 for Netflix. After I finished watching Kaos, I cancelled Netflix. I only kept it because it was so cheap, but I rarely watched anything.

All the time I had Netflix, I also was a sailor, because I want to watch things not on Netflix. I should have dropped it the first time they raised the price.

Haven't had Netflix since the password debacle. Never even missed it. 🏴‍☠️

[–] Ithorian@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Same, no regrets

One use for AI would be to eliminate all ads. The AI giveth and AI can taketh away. Lol

[–] SendMePhotos@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Not that it means anything here, but I'll definitely not partake. Hard pass.

Hey Netflix, the amount of Ads people are willing to endure for a paid subscription is ZERO and it will always remain so. In fact even the stupid games advertised on the top of the landing page made me use Netflix less and less, and now that they stopped password sharing I don't use it at all

Aaaand I'm so glad I cancelled Netflix this year. All the new shows are kinda trash anyway.

The only reason I have netflix is because I stayed logged into my moms account after moving out. Once she dies or decided to stop paying it is when I will no longer have netflix. Im fine with losing it. I dont watch it much anyways. But now AI ads? Fuck no. They’ve been bad enough on youtube. Im considering getting a lyfetime membership to nebula and ditching youtube all together
