Netflix Global Expansion
Streaming pioneer Netflix had significantly expanded its global footprint to 190 countries, making its Internet TV service available in 130 new markets including India but not China. Netflix noted in a statement that it "continues to explore options for providing the service" in China, the world's most populous country, where the government censors online content it deems to be politically sensitive. Other countries or markets without the service are Crimea, North Korea and Syria due to US government restrictions on American companies. In 2016, the company plans to release 31 new and returning original series, two dozen original feature films and documentaries, as well as its own stand-up comedy specials and 30 original children's programs.
