The streaming service known as Netflix has been having a turbulent time as of late.

Netflix is sounding the alarm against password sharing, something the company promises to crack down against. On top of this, Netflix also furloughed 150 of its employees, following enormous plunges in subscribers and overall profits.

The company does have some hit shows and movies that keep certain people interested. However, it also has some work to do as earnings have taken a hit.

In light of the situation, multiple reports claim that Netflix plans to incorporate ads into its streaming to offset losses.

Unfortunately, this may only be the beginning of hard times for Netflix. The streaming service is now being sued, due to its release of the “Our Father” documentary.

A deep dive into the lawsuit against Netflix

“Our Father” on Netflix chronicles Donald Cline, a now-former fertility doctor in Indiana who used his own sperm to impregnate women while telling them the sperm came from other donors.

In 2019, two women found out they are the biological children of Cline; however, they chose not to broadcast this information for personal reasons.
