On Tuesday, Gulf countries asked OTT giant Netflix to remove "offensive content" from the streamer, citing that it "contradicts Islamic and societal values and principles." Reportedly, the anger and outrage were against programs that feature homosexual relationships, which are taboo in these countries. The demand was released through the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), which comprises Saudi Arabia, UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, and Qatar.
