I feel like other streaming platforms will follow the same process as they've proven it's worked.

They're not saying it directly of course, but they clearly frame the account sharers as "bad guys" now. I mean you're correct that no one is entitled to watch netflix for free but that "poor netflix just wants to get paid" narrative is some serious BS. I also kinda doubt netflix tells us the 100% truth about subscription growth/recession. The only reason I did not switch my account on/off over the years was because it was shared and it would have required coordination with the other party.
