This just seems like a Ad for their working tech of placing ads in movies, by making up something currently fanciful for attention.
You'd have to pre-render multiple versions to stream and store online for the group of people who maybe watching, which loses the whole 'targeted' advertising idea anyway.
The ads will be noticeable, to work they have to be in focus to read which is not normal on TV Shows or movies, it will change the experience, Netflix won't want to kill their brand.
And I think the ability to just update ads post production would deliver 99% of value, which is still a market they have yet to capture even on re-runs on crappy TV.

- Someone 7y ago"You'd have to pre-render multiple versions to stream and store online for the group of people who maybe watching” I don’t think you need to store it. There already is lots of live streaming that merges in adverts (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_advertising#Live_Events https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_advertising#Live_Event...) And that is in cases where the advertiser doesn’t know up-front what the camera movements will be. With international soccer matches broadcast to two countries, the solution used to be to place each country’s cameras on one side of the field, and have each long side of the field show adverts targeted at one country. I don’t see that happen anymore.
