It sounds like they were smart about it. They were like, “Wow, we can pay less rent on office space” and rolled with it. Then they were like, “Now we can look outside the area for employees that might be better than the ones in the area when we’re hiring.” It makes sense for a small company to ask and then take advantage of the pros.
I canceled my Netflix. I’m sure more people will cancel Netflix if they don’t have more stuff to watch. That’s actually why I canceled. I couldn’t find anything new I wanted to watch. Now that every company has its own streaming service Netflix has lost a lot of content and is struggling to replace it. My cancellation had nothing to do with password sharing. I live alone, no kids, no people to share passwords with. I won’t replace it with a subscription to something else, either. I don’t see the value in having to subscribe to something just to watch one or two things that interest me.
If people want to, they can still download what they bought. They just can’t buy new stuff. So, if they want to, they can download it all and back it up for posterity if they want to. They have time.
