Netflix wants to swallow Hollywood’s crown jewels. In this episode of Filtered with TJ Walker:

We break down Netflix’s $72 billion plan to acquire Warner Bros and HBO and what it means for competition, movie theaters, and the future of streaming.
We examine how a frustrated homeowner and his RATGDO device became the symbol of a larger fight over who really owns your “smart” devices, you or the companies that can brick them and charge endless subscriptions.
We dive into Bitcoin’s latest price volatility and lay out the full case against crypto: speculation, scams, money laundering, password risk, and why the “fiat is worthless” argument collapses on contact with reality.
We look at the sentencing of Matthew Perry’s ketamine doctor and how authority bias, halo effect, groupthink, and motivated reasoning can warp medical judgment.
We cover why a federal grand jury refused to re-indict New York Attorney General Letitia James, and what that says about Trump’s efforts to weaponize the Justice Department.
And we close with Trump’s kill-on-sight boat campaign against alleged drug smugglers, which legal experts say may violate both U.S. and international law and could amount to murder at sea rather than wartime operations.
