    They have restarted a lot of cancelled subscriptions I hear. Even people just opening the app re-starts it. That’s one way to get 6 million new subscribers and a fancy headline in the news.

      Yes, this happened to me. Canceled when I got the password sharing email. My niece accidentally hit the Netflix button on the controller at their house, and we were instantly billed and resubscribed again.

        I would think 6 million new subscribers is a bunch of people who haven’t noticed. And that’s really low then.
