Here's a timeline: journalist speaks to Netflix, Netflix says it's ditching anti-virus, journalist gets further comment, reports. Don't be mad Jon. It'll all be OK.
- criddell 11y agoWhy did the journalist speak to Netflix in the first place?
- OJFord 11y ago[Comment above](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10135598 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10135598) says journalist met Netflix guy at Black Hat.
- criddell 11y agoOk, fair enough. If the writer insists this is a legitimate piece, I'll believe him. You have to admit though, this certainly reads like a native content article. In the current business climate, you can't fault people for assuming this was paid for.
- OJFord 11y agoOh, I certainly do. I wasn't arguing it was a well-thought-through and genuine article, and that the company it talks about is genuinely doing something new and better.
- jonstokes 11y agoI wasn't actually mad until you called yourself a "journalist" just now. That's over the line :p
- jonstokes 11y agoOK, I'm sorry. The above was mean. You have hard, thankless job. I know, I used to do it. Good luck out there.
