You don't need that. Streaming is already crippled on Linux. Hell, Netflix won't even stream full quality on Chrome!

    4K Ultra HD on a computer

    Netflix is available in Ultra HD on Windows and Mac computers with:

      Microsoft Edge for Windows

      Windows app for Windows 10 and Windows 11

      Safari for MacOS 11.0 or later

I have netflix, but also a usenet server account and many TB of disk. I might cancel the first, if the added value becomes too small.

Until access to the internet or methods of circumventing DRM are crippled without submitting to these technologies. That's the road we're heading down. Can't hack the current-gen Xbox, apparently. I'm wondering if someone will take that as a "challenge accepted".

Fun fact, that app hasn't been updated in years. It's super buggy.

It's a nice demonstration how vendors won't bother to improve if the user has no choice.

Well, the Xbox One wasn't hacked either. That was released in 2013. If it was going to be hacked, it likely would have already happened given that its most popular moment has come and gone.
