Netflix’s ‘Three-Body Problem’ project in China

Neflix announced its Three-Body Problem plans in September to great fanfare, especially due to the involvement of Game of Thrones creators Weiff and Benioff.

……………….“Liu Cixin’s trilogy is the most ambitious science-fiction series we’ve read,” wrote Benioff and Weiss in a statement. “We look forward to spending the next years of our lives bringing this to life for audiences around the world.”

But U.S. senators soon raised questions about Netflix’s decision to partner with Liu, and asked Netflix in a letter to “seriously reconsider” going through with the project because doing so would provide tacit support to China's alleged human rights violations……….

So if Netflix does not go through with the deal, how does this help the Chinese government to correct it human rights violations?? Maybe US senators ought to concern themselves with doing their jobs, and not foisting international affairs on the backs of US corporations.
