Default Netflix 'deceiving' black users with 'creepy' posters



This has gone Worldwide.

[The streaming service is accused of using artwork to
suggest black actors have starring roles in films when they do not.]

They do it with all the actors though, so it's not a race thing.

If you seem to watch a lot of a particular actor or genre, they will adjust posters to display the movies with them on the artwork regardless of the size of their role.
