Isn't this the requirement of every website with a login system since the 90s? Never used Netflix, was it possible to subscribe without providing an email address?

Also, temporary email addresses exist, as well as setting up a throw away email address; don't see much of a problem with this.

With one account you used to be able to have multiple profiles.

I used to have a profile on my parents account. Never linked any email to that profile.

We obviously quite the subscription when they didn't allow profiles to exist in different houses.

This is for profiles. You can have up to 6 per account
