Here’s how the <a href="http://vox.com/bookclub">Vox Book Club</a> works: Each month, we pick a book. Around the middle of the month, we publish a discussion post containing thoughts and questions from Vox book critic Constance Grady, but we also have comments turned on and moderated so you can share your thoughts, too. Talk among yourselves! Post your opinions and questions! Or use the conversation as a jumping-off point for your own conversations with friends and family. And at the end of the month, we gather on Zoom for a virtual live discussion.

The streaming giant is launching a ratings system, of sorts.

<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom" id="fNCpZ8">

When Netflix ushered in the streaming video era, it helped kill off traditional TV ratings. Now, the company says it wants to bring them back, sort of: The streaming giant is going to start publishing lists of its most popular TV shows and movies, which it will update weekly.
|
|||
|
|
</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom" id="6LQ2bK">
|
|||
|
|
Netflix’s data will show up on its own <a href="https://top10.netflix.com/">website</a>, where it will offer multiple top 10 lists that rank titles by the number of hours the company’s subscribers have spent watching them. The company will have global rankings for TV shows and movies, as well as top 10 lists for 90 different countries. Netflix also says it will bring in accounting firm Ernst & Young to audit its numbers, and will publish a report from that company next year.
|
|||

|
|
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom" id="HLJ0Db">
|
|||
|
|
This will have almost zero impact on the way you watch Netflix — unless you are into tracking data about the way other people watch Netflix. Which, to be fair, <a href="https://twitter.com/pkafka/status/1450555029484711945?s=21">some people are</a>.

Here’s a sample of what Netflix’s ratings will look like — these charts rank Netflix’s global viewing for the second week of November, and include stuff Netflix owns as well as stuff it licenses from other companies:

One streaming company publishing its own viewing data on a regular basis isn’t the same as the old TV world, when <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/12/business/media/nbcuniversal-
|
|||
|
|
nielsen-tv-alternatives.html">Nielsen</a> regularly tracked viewing consumption for all TV networks and made that data widely available.
|
|||
|
|
</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom" id="P07eDk">
|
|||
|
|
But we’re not living in that world anymore. Instead, video viewing is increasingly fragmented into different streaming services owned by different companies, which cherry-pick audience data to share when they think they have something to boast about.
|
|||
|
|
</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom" id="sDM8IU">
|
|||
|
|
Netflix isn’t any different from its competitors in that respect: It’s putting these new numbers out because they think they reflect well on Netflix.
|
|||
|
|
</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom" id="rTkHvg">
|
|||
|
|
And while those numbers may be interesting for you, A Person Who Watches Netflix, the numbers are really aimed at a professional audience. That includes investors, who want to see if the billions of dollars Netflix spends on content are being turned into Things People Watch (note that the two Top 10 lists above are dominated by stuff Netflix made instead of rented). It also means Hollywood talent, who want to be reassured that things they make for Netflix are being watched by lots of people.
|
|||
|
|
</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom" id="VrqPk1">
|
|||
|
|
The numbers also represent an unspoken challenge to rival streaming services like Disney+, Hulu, and Peacock: <em>We dare you to publish your numbers using the same methodology because we bet they’re much smaller than ours</em>. It’s also worth noting that the main audience for traditional TV ratings numbers — advertisers who wanted to know where to spend their money — isn’t material here, since Netflix doesn’t run ads.
|
|||
|
|
</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom" id="VDzs1C">
|
|||
|
|
Netflix used to keep all of its viewing data to itself, and initially bristled when outsiders tried to measure shows on their own. But two years ago, it started to selectively and periodically release some of its own numbers — <a href="https://www.vox.com/2019/1/17/18187234/netflix-views-numbers-first-time-bird-box-bodyguard-you-
|
|||
|
|
sex-education">always ones that flattered the company</a>.
|
|||
|
|
</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom" id="wDuQhx">
|
|||
|
|
The numbers also drew derision from competitors and critics. That’s in part because there was no real transparency to the reporting, and in part because of Netflix’s odd and changing definition of what a “view” is. At first Netflix said a view happened if someone watched 70 percent of a TV show; then the company revised that and said anyone who watched at least two minutes of a show counted as a viewer.
|
|||
|
|
</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom" id="BKrPFG">
|
|||
|
|
Now, Netflix is simply tracking how much time its viewers spend, in aggregate, with a show or movie. That means, in theory, that two people watching <em>Red Notice</em>, its lousy but popular action movie starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Ryan Reynolds, and Gal Gadot, would count the same as a single person watching the movie twice.
|
|||
|
|
</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p data-aos="fade-left" data-aos-anchor-placement="bottom-bottom" id="Ntamiq">
|
|||
|
|
So let’s say Netflix makes a <em>Red Notice</em> sequel. (Pro: The movie, which reportedly had a $200 million budget, is supposed to be Netflix’s attempt to make its own action franchise; Con: It looks and feels like it was made for a <em>lot</em> less than $200 million.) But with the new numbers Netflix is releasing, you won’t have to rely on context-free boasts like this one to gauge whether that’s a good idea:

On the other hand, consumer fetishization of behind-the-scenes info about the entertainment they consume doesn’t necessarily make for a better experience. We used to watch TV shows and movies with almost no idea how many other people were watching, and that was just fine. Feel free to ignore all of this.

In fact, Russia’s latest missile test may have increased the total amount of <a href="https://www.vox.com/2015/1/20/7558681/space-junk">space junk</a>, including discarded pieces of rockets and satellites in Earth’s orbit, by as much as <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/science/2021/nov/16/a-wild-west-out-

These shards are spinning at incredibly fast speeds and risk hitting active satellites that power critical technologies, like <a href="https://www.vox.com/recode/22598437/spacex-hackers-cyberattack-space-force">GPS navigation and weather forecasting</a>. Space debris like this is actually so dangerous that national security officials are worried it could be used as a weapon in <a href="https://www.vox.com/2014/4/21/5625246/space-war-china-north-korea-iran">a future space war</a>. In fact, the State Department has already said the Monday missile test is evidence that Russia is more than willing to create debris that jeopardizes the safety of all countries operating in low-Earth orbit, and even risks disrupting the peace in space.

These risks have only heightened concerns that we’re far from solving the space junk problem, especially as private companies and foreign governments launch <a href="https://www.vox.com/recode/2021/11/3/22761345/project-kuiper-satellite-amazon-space-internet">thousands of new satellites into orbit</a> — inevitably creating even more space junk.

Monday’s events, however, were more politically fraught than your average space debris incident. The Russian government launched a so-called <a href="https://www.space.com/russia-asat-test-space-debris-dangerous-irresponsible">antisatellite test</a> (ASAT), which, as the name implies, is designed to destroy satellites in orbit. Launched from a site <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-59307862">a few hundred miles north of Moscow</a>, the missile struck a <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-59299101">non-operational Russian spy satellite</a> called Kosmos-1408 that had been orbiting the Earth since 1982. The satellite has now been broken into thousands of pieces that are currently whizzing around Earth at about 17,000 miles an hour, passing the International Space Station approximately every 90 minutes. While astronauts no longer need to shelter, the threat to the ISS or other satellites has not gone away.

“I’m outraged by this irresponsible and destabilizing action,” <a href="https://www.nasa.gov/press-release/nasa-administrator-statement-on-russian-asat-test">NASA administrator Bill Nelson</a> said in a statement. “With its long and storied history in human spaceflight, it is unthinkable that Russia would endanger not only the American and international partner astronauts on the ISS, but also their own cosmonauts.” Nelson added that Russia’s actions were “reckless and dangerous” and also imperiled those aboard China’s Tiangong space station.

condemning-anti-satellite-asat-weapon-test.html">four countries</a>, including India, the US, and China, to blow up its own satellite<strong> </strong>using an antisatellite missile. This trend is alarming because governments with ASAT systems could use the tech to attack other countries’ satellites, turning space into a battlefield. But even if countries only target their own space objects, Russia’s missile test shows how governments can also use antisatellite missiles to create debris that endangers every country, company, or person operating in orbit. And again, once this debris is created, it can remain a threat for years. Just last week, the ISS had to <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2021/11/10/science/china-debris-space-station.html">adjust its altitude</a> by about a mile to avoid hitting space debris from a satellite that China shot down in 2007.

The space junk problem is only getting bigger, too. Right now, there are more than 100 million pieces of space trash <a href="https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/news/orbital_debris.html">larger than a millimeter</a> orbiting Earth, according to NASA. And as of May, the Department of Defense <a href="https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/news/orbital_debris.html">tracked</a> more than 27,000 larger pieces of orbital debris, but even smaller pieces can still pose a massive danger to <a href="https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/station/news/orbital_debris.html">other satellites and space stations</a> because of the incredibly high velocity at which they travel.

“I don’t think you can overstate the danger of space debris at this point,” Wendy Whitman Cobb, a professor at the US Air Force School of Air and Space Studies, told Recode. “As you create more debris, the chances of that debris hitting other things and creating more debris kind of just grows.”

What makes the space junk problem especially difficult is that no one has taken responsibility for it. According to the <a href="https://www.unoosa.org/oosa/en/ourwork/spacelaw/treaties/outerspacetreaty.html">Outer Space Treaty</a>, the foundation of international space law, countries remain the proprietors of whatever objects they send into space, so Russia still technically owns all the satellite fragments created by its Monday missile test. There isn’t a global consensus on what the penalties for <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/science/if-a-satellite-falls-on-your-house-

But there’s concern that governments could use the very same tools to take down another country’s satellites. At the same time, the cost of creating space junk — and removing it — is rarely factored into the decision to launch a vehicle or satellite into space.

“In a lot of ways, this is the same type of problem, an environmental issue that we’ve been dealing with on Earth in many, many forms,” Akhil Rao, <a href="https://www.middlebury.edu/academics/econ/faculty_staff_officehours/node/623754">an economist at Middlebury</a> who has studied space debris, told Recode. “We’ve struggled with fisheries collapse, we’ve struggled with atmospheric pollution, [and] we’ve struggled with ozone depletion.”

Right now, the best way we have right now to ameliorate the many risks of orbital debris is to not create space junk in the first place. That might happen through better international cooperation or creating new economic incentives for private companies, but the sooner it happens, the better. While we’re generally able to navigate around the space junk that already exists, that will get more and more difficult as more debris builds up. And if we don’t figure out a solution in time, we could end up in a situation where low-Earth orbit is so packed with space trash that it’s unnavigable.

Looking out at the sea of stricken faces in the large lecture hall he continues. “There are 300 of you, and only one of me. I will not allow you to waste my time. If you are late to class, I will count you as absent for the day. If you hand in an assignment late, it will not count towards your grade.

By this time, the professor is absolutely fuming. “How dare you!” He rants at the student. “Coming in late, staying after the bell has rung! Just who do you think you are?!”

The student gives the professor a scathing look. "Don’t you *know who I am?"

“No,” the professor scoffs, “I certainly do not!”

“Oh thank goodness!” says the student, relieved. He shoves his test into the middle of the stack of exams and runs out of the room.

It is 1939 and a Soviet army is marching on Finland. As they pass the border, they hear a Finnish voice over the hill; “One Finnish soldier is better than 10 Soviet soldiers!” The Soviet general laughs, as he sends 10 men on the hill to capture it.<br/> There is gunfire for a minute and then everything goes silent for a moment, and they then hear the same voice; “One Finnish soldier is better than a hundred of yours!”<br/> Annoyed, the Soviet general sends hundred men to capture the hill. There is gunfire and bombs going for ten minutes, and everything goes silent again. Suddenly, the same voice yells out; “One Finnish soldier is better than thousand of Soviet soldiers!”<br/> Enraged, the general sends a thousand men, accompanied with tanks, artillery, mortar teams, and tells them to not return until the hill is theirs. For half an hour hell breaks loose, bombs and explosions, gunfire, screams and death all around, and then it goes silent again.<br/> One Soviet soldier crawls back, severely wounded and battered. Before the general could say anything, the soldier says; “Do not send more troops, comrade general, it’s a trap! There is two of them.”
