Maybe. As I said, that’s not important to me. It’s wrong if a big company does it, and wrong if a little one run by relatives does it.
Netflix started buying rights in 2018. Here’s something from the New York Times story on that:

Dahl himself frequently warned of the mind-damaging effects of television. To make that point, the Oompa Loompas in “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” at one point sing: “The most important thing we’ve learned / So far as children are concerned / Is never, NEVER, NEVER let / Them near your television set — Or better still, just don’t install / The idiotic thing at all.”
