Netflix Shares Drop 25% After Service Loses 200k Subscribers

Netflix has experienced its first significant subscriber loss in over a decade, with a 27% drop in stock value. The company lost 200,000 subscribers in early 2022 and anticipates losing 2 million more by the second quarter. Netflix attributes part of this loss to password sharing, with over 100 million households accessing the service for free.
