Password crackdown leads to more income for Netflix: Netflix to stop reporting subscriber numbers, prioritizing viewer engagement instead.

ft.com/content/3c71289c-74af-4c9e-8327-d92b1f723dd3

Quick Glance: Netflix to Cease Reporting Subscriber Numbers from 2025

Netflix will no longer report subscriber numbers starting from the first quarter of 2025. The announcement came with the first quarter 2024 results where Netflix exceeded expectations.

Despite the success in the first quarter, Netflix shares dropped over 4.5% after-hours upon revealing the decision to stop reporting quarterly subscriber totals.

The choice to discontinue reporting quarterly membership numbers or average revenue per member is based on Netflix's belief that engagement time is the best indicator of customer satisfaction.

Netflix plans to announce major subscriber milestones but will halt reporting quarterly subscriber numbers and shift investor focus towards time-spent-viewing metrics.

Quick Glance: Twelve Jurors Seated in Trump's Hush Money Trial

A jury of 12 individuals was empaneled on Thursday in the landmark hush money trial of former President Donald Trump, bringing the proceedings closer to opening arguments and the commencement of weeks filled with compelling testimonies.

The upcoming trial is anticipated to present unfavorable testimonies regarding Trump's personal life pre-presidency, including accusations of manipulating business records to suppress narratives in the final days of the 2016 election surrounding his intimate relationships.

Central to the trial is a payment of $130,000 made by Cohen just before the 2016 election to adult film actress Stormy Daniels, aimed at preventing her allegations of a sexual encounter with Trump from being publicized in the campaign's final stretch.

The selection of the jury holds paramount significance in any criminal proceeding, particularly so when the accused is a former president and the presumed Republican candidate. Potential jurors have undergone extensive scrutiny concerning their online presence, personal backgrounds, and political stances as legal representatives and the judge meticulously scrutinize for partialities that could compromise their impartiality.

Quick Glance: Taylor Swift unveils track list for new album featuring two collaborations

Taylor Swift shared on Monday the song titles and information about two collaborations for her 11th era, 'The Tortured Poets Department,' an album she announced after winning her 13th career Grammy on Sunday.

The album has four sides, with the titles of the songs suggesting it could be a breakup album about her ex-boyfriend and actor Joe Alwyn, whom Swift dated for six years.

There are several song titles in the album referencing London and England, where Alwyn is from, contrasting the cheerful nature of 'London Boy' with darker titles like 'But Daddy I Love Him.'

Swift also revealed that she wrote the bonus track 'You're Losing Me' two years ago, which depicts a relationship on life support as she pleads with her partner to revive the romance.

Quick Glance: EU Proposes Mobility Expansion for UK and EU Youth

The European Commission has proposed opening negotiations with the UK to allow mobility for millions of 18- to 30-year-olds before Brexit.

Under the planned agreement, EU and UK citizens aged between 18 and 30 could have the opportunity to stay in the destination country for an extended period.

The decision by the commission, which was previously strongly against concessions to the UK, is seen as a breakthrough in UK-EU relations.

If approved, millions of young people could come to the UK to fill the gap left by Brexit in the hospitality sector and at universities.

Quick Glance: Prince Harry Officially Residing in U.S.

Prince Harry and his wife Meghan have considered California home, and now his official residency in the U.S. has been documented in a corporate filing.

The document was filed at Britain’s corporate registrar, Companies House, to update the official residency of the British royal for business records of Travalyst Limited.

There had been little official confirmation of Harry’s residency status until this week, with an entry indicating a change of residency to June 29, 2023, the day the couple left Frogmore Cottage, their British home.

It is unclear what type of U.S. visa or residency permit Harry holds, despite efforts by conservative activists in the U.S. to ascertain them, including an ongoing lawsuit.

Quick Glance: Police Investigation into SNP Finances: Key Updates

On Thursday, the re-arrest of Peter Murrell, the husband of Nicola Sturgeon, took place as part of the police investigation into the SNP’s finances.

Murrell, aged 59, was apprehended and underwent interrogation by detectives.

The arrest occurred slightly more than a year subsequent to the search conducted by Police Scotland officers at the couple’s residence, where a blue tent was set up outside the property, alongside searches at the SNP’s headquarters in Edinburgh.

In April 2024, Peter Murrell was charged with 'embezzlement' of funds from the SNP.

Quick Glance: Scottish Government Abandons 'World-Leading' Climate Target

The Scottish Government has abandoned its “world-leading” target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 75% by 2030.

Ministers will bring forward legislation to ensure the climate change target “better reflects the reality of long-term climate policymaking”.

Scotland will move away from legally binding annual targets to a five-yearly carbon budget approach.

A new package of climate action measures was announced, including tripling the number of charging points for electric vehicles and exploring a new integrated ticketing system for public transport in Scotland.
