Netflix recently revealed the list of movies and television shows that have been banned by governments around the world from the year 2015 until present day.
“We offer creators the ability to reach audiences all around the world,” Netflix said in a statement. “In some cases we’ve also been forced to remove specific titles or episodes of titles in specific countries due to government takedown demands.”
