It's not even surprising anymore platforms do this & act all Pikachu face why piracy is spiking

Netflix & all these streaming platforms have completely lost touch & they will lose more customers in the long run

To quote Gabe Newell on Piracy

"We think there is a fundamental misconception about piracy. Piracy is almost always a service problem and not a pricing problem. If a pirate offers a product anywhere in the world, 24 x 7, purchasable from the convenience of your personal computer, and the legal provider says the product is region-locked, will come to your country 3 months after the US release, and can only be purchased at a brick and mortar store, then the pirate’s service is more valuable."

Sounds like your daughter is at just the right age to start learning a new language? (Half joking) pirate-jammin

That's the best approach IMO but till she can watch a cartoon and understand it may be take a while..so in the mean time I'm kinda tied to streaming.

I bet watching them in English with Portuguese subtitles would prob be a great way for a kid to learn English on the sly

Definitely worked for me.

It seems very common among millennials and Gen Z.

It's been common for decades - I firs learned of it in the 80's.
