Correction: Netflix-Sharing Crackdown story
FILE- A Netflix logo is displayed on an iPhone in Philadelphia on July 17, 2017. Netflix is confronting a reckoning that will result in new barriers to prevent its video streaming service’s subscribers from sharing their passwords beyond their households and possibly inject ads into its programming line-up for the first time. The looming changes announced late Tuesday, April 19, 2022, are aimed at helping Netflix regain the momentum that has been lost during the past year as pandemic-driven lockdowns that kept people at home lifted and other deep-pocketed rivals such as Apple and Walt Disney rolled out competing video services that began to chip away at its vast audience.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — In a story published April 20, 2022, about Netflix considering adding ads to its video streaming service, The Associated Press erroneously reported that the consulting firm Accenture expects advertising in video services to total $21 billion annually by 2027. Accenture expects advertising in video services to reach that level by 2025.
