💬 Technical Note

Several people have suggested blocking the Netflix API responsible for checking whether a user belongs to a Netflix Household.

I intentionally chose not to use this approach for several reasons:

• It is unreliable and its effectiveness varies depending on the region.
• It is easier for Netflix to detect.
• From a legal perspective, Nikflix is designed to modify the page after Netflix has already delivered its content, rather than blocking or interfering with network requests.
• This approach reduces legal risks for both the project and its users.
