Hence, it is not surprising that the topic appears once again when Astro officially rolled out the Netflix integration into Astra Ultra Box last week. For those who are wondering about this, contents that are being shown on the Netflix app on the Astro connected boxes will not be censored by the company.
There is nothing surprising about this as the Netflix app on Astro connected boxes generally functions just like any other Netflix app out there. Hence, the content came directly from Netflix rather than being fed by Astro.
This is similar to how Astro has no control over the contents on HBO Go. In fact, the company sometimes may have seen this as an advantage given how it has used the “uncensored” element as part of the marketing campaign for the Game of Thrones’ final season back in 2019.
