Since I live (and always lived) outside the United States, I never got anything by US Postal mail. This obviously includes Netflix movies.
BTW, I'm not only older than Google. I'm older than the World Wide Web. Heck, when I was born, neither Microsoft nor Apple existed. Not even Unix had been released yet.

Yep. I'm older than IBM 370, Unix, Microcomputers, Apple, Microsoft, VCRs, Internet, exploding Ford Pintos, WWW, Google, and having to ask people what their pronouns are before you attempt to engage in conversation with them.

No one has to ask about pronouns, but as always you will find some jerks that get riled up if you use the wrong one. Very similar to jerks thatget offended by happy holidays instead of merry christmas. Don't get too crotchety lest you become what you mock!

I looked it up, and I just *barely* predate the final release of Research Unix, by a couple months :)
