    Article seems to confuse cause and effect. Maybe some subscribers left but they more likely because the service is too expensive or didn’t like the content. It doesn’t necessarily follow they all left because some freeloaders lost their access to another person’s account.

      In all fairness, it’s a Forbes article, which generally implies it’s crap.

      When I cancelled my account I was sure to put that I was not going to continue to support my parents in law since I didn’t care for the service myself.

      So Netflix lost a top tier subscriber from me because of it

        Haha, I power my Roku from the TV’s USB port, so I can just turn off the TV to kill the Roku.
