The strike is already making noise in front of Netflix’s door
This strike becomes another front for Netflix, which has many conflicting positions on its hands. The arrival of broadcasting, well represented by the streaming giant, has led to an almost complete loss of royalties for many screenwriters.
Streaming platforms tend to be reluctant to share their audience data explicitly, causing writers who worked on, say, a Netflix original series to dwindle or even disappear in earnings.
