    “Netflix [had] sued” is as reasonable as “Netflix [was] sued,” is it not?

    Edit: love it when you make a reasonable point and wind up with zero replies but exactly one downvote. Such a funny little experience, these moments are.

      Had/was kinda implied this is a thing that happened a while ago. They could probably do something like “Netflix suing for…” and “Netflix being sued for…”, but the confusion is probably intentional for clicks.

            Too true, but when you see a kid crying about their spilled ice cream, do you go “Haha, cry harder dipshit!” Ice cream doesn’t matter, right?

            Or should you just be kind to others as your starting point?
