Someone sent me an email about this. According to the email, Netflix was keeping records of who watched what movies. Didn't say Netflix was selling said records to telemarketers (yet) but surely that was coming. Assuming this is real, and not a scam to get me to click on virus spreading URL's, it's breaking news to me. I'll have to check around the web to see what's what.
If someone has huge amounts of time, and nothing better to do, and they review my movie watching habits, I should be OK. Other than a taste for children's movies, my movie picks are depressingly ordinary, westerns, soap opera's, action and adventure, plain old Hollywood flicks. I did watch a couple of Shakespeare plays this year.
The email didn't say what happened to Netflix "suggest a movie" features, which were supposed to suggest movies to watch based upon your stated preferences and viewing history, not that it ever worked very well.
