Netflix Viewing Activity

Netflix Viewing Activity Updated 07212022-191040

I was able to download the entirety of my Netflix user activity in JSON format ridiculously quickly thanks to a script I found from GitHub User jsejcksn as well and the (brilliant, open source) Userscripts Safari Extension.

I'm assuming there's nothing revealing so I guess I'll publish it lol.
