Episode Details

Netflix’s reputation is on the line after a $105 million lawsuit over a stolen hard drive containing an unreleased Nicolas Cage WWII spy thriller, Fortitude — a $45 million production now at risk of being buried due to alleged security failures. The filmmakers blame Netflix for mishandling the digital copy, claiming it jeopardized international releases and award campaigns. Netflix denies responsibility, insisting they don’t own the rights and have robust anti-piracy measures in place — even offering extra support. This bizarre case, called a first for the streaming giant, pits massive financial stakes against creative dreams, all sparked by a single stolen drive.
