It should be noted as well that Netflix has a weird hyper fixation on getting as many new signups as possible instead of user retention. That’s a big reason why so many shows that seem so big get cancelled, they aren’t bringing new sign ups in the eyes of Netflix, its their core business model. It’s really weird and I personally think it’s not a sustainable business model whatsoever, but I feel that it puts their password sharing policy into perspective better here.
“New signups” being the operative term here, not necessarily new paid subscriptions

I’ve read they have a free tier withs ads. Apparently it makes more money peruser too…
