Yeah, dude tried to open his own personal Netflix and is surprised it got taken down.
From post history he managed to keep it up for less than a month.
I'm betting by "friends" he meant either online friends he's never met, or people he wanted to impress.
So they gave zero fucks and handed it out to more people. Like, just the idea that you're giving it to so many people that you actually buy a domain?
There's a reason everyone isn't already doing it already.
I kept it up for more than a year. By friends I mean like 3 people I know in real fucking life, and I made them all set secure passwords. Way to assume the worst about people, it is a very healthy attitude to have.
This whole thread is depressing to read, full of corporate bootlickers putting blame on you.
