Net subscribers may have increased, but I suspect many of them have chosen a cheaper option. Since my family can no longer use my account there's no need to have 3 simultaneous streams. I chose for a cheaper subscription and expect many to do the same.

Wasn't there a news article floating around yesterday claiming that Netflix was about to ditch their cheapest ad-free option?

They are, in the US and UK. Greedy bastards.

I suspect you are right, because Netflix is axing its lowest ad-free tier and those on it will either need to pay the higher ad-free or switch to ads.
