>A lot of people in a lot of countries are cancelling Disney Plus, Netflix, Amazon Plus, Apple TV, etc. just because they're American

Think you might be over-estimating the size of your algorithm bubble there. Normal people don't even make that connection.



I think it's likely that many people do make that connection.

There has been a surge of antipathy towards the U.S. in Canada and Europe; owing to Trump's threats with respect to trade wars, annexation of Canada and Greenland, and undermining NATO and the ability of Europe to defend itself.


I mean, I wouldn't say "a lot of people" but... "normal people" absolutely make that connection, and some moderately-sized portion of them are indeed cancelling some services.

The antics of the US have been a perfect excuse to clean up under-used subscriptions.
