Netflix will what now? Sorry, I was busy canceling my netflix account.
Kidding, I canceled it ages ago when the $10 version became SD-only with ads.}
Why do we keep paying people like this to enshittify everything?

I've cancelled my subscriptions to only subscribe to the platforms owned by our national broadcaster even if there's one of them I don't watch any shows on, fuck those American platforms.
Netflix can fuck right off as I cancel my subscription and board the Jolly Roger
Netflix doing their best to lose whatever customers they have left rofl
Sure, but they have a crazy large amount of data and an army of Data Science PhDs who sat down and calculated they'd make more money increasing their margins on people who'll put up with it, than they'd lose pissing the rest of their customers off.
All the rest of us can do is leave our Torrents running and keep our ratios up...

Just think the CEOs of Netflix get $60 million a year to fuck it up while we work 1-4 jobs actually providing goods and services to barely make it.

Annnnd goodbye Netflix subscription
There is no way this doesn’t wind up making an ad that's misleading enough to get Netflix and/or the advertiser in trouble
These ads will most definitely not be generated on-the-fly; too risky and too costly. They'll be pre-generated and pre-approved AI-generated videos.
Imagine a collection of videos like that AI Coca Cola commercial (but for a soon-to-be-cancelled Netflix series instead of a soda), with a dozen different versions of it made for each "user archetype" Netflix identifies. That's going to be how Netflix implements this.
