Netflix Italy court loss on price changes -- a Rome judge just ruled the streamer's 2017-2024 hikes were flat-out illegal under consumer law because Netflix never gave a real reason in the contract for jacking up fees. Consumer group Movimento Consumatori won big, so now the company has to slash current prices back to pre-hike levels and hand out refunds up to €500 for longtime Premium users and €250 for Standard -- yeah the same outfit that just bumped U.S. prices again is getting forced to pay millions back while they whine they'll appeal -- classic big-tech "we'll charge whatever we want" energy getting curb-stomped by actual rules.
