Nov 2013 UPDATE: There is a new company that is the edited movie STREAMING business! It's called VIDANGEL. Check them out here and lets show them some support!


This petition is for Netflix to know how interested we are in them teaming with ClearPlay to provide filtered instant video streaming. Conceptually, Netflix would provide a "family-friendly" streaming option to their existing video streaming using the filtering technology that ClearPlay provides for DVD-viewing today.

Netflix is known for listening to their customers. If you'd like to see Netflix team with ClearPlay, PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION! Additionally, five minutes on the phone with them would go a long way. Along with signing this petition, will you call and speak to Netflix personally and just let them know you're interested in filtered streaming using ClearPlay? Their number is 1-866-716-0414.

Some background: ClearPlay is a company that provides wholesome entertainment options by creating filters that take out objectionable content from DVDs. It basically allows you to watch just about any Hollywood movie without all of the junk you don't want to watch.

As a long-time supporter of ClearPlay, I (with hopefully many of you!) am interested in helping ClearPlay be successful as technology continues to change. With the popularity of Netflix streaming, we thought it'd be ideal to begin with them--to let them know how interested we'd be in having them partner with ClearPlay to provide filtered streaming.

Thanks for your support!

I'm a paying customer of both services. A partnership would improve the ClearPlay value proposition, and give Netflix an edge over encroaching services.

Netflix would be a much sought after product if it aloud Clearplay filtering. Hundreds of people are cautious of online streaming as there children can be exposed to so many things. Clearplay would give so many the piece of mind they need. Thanks

I've been using Clearplay filtering for DVDs now for several years. We are very happy with the technology and the service that Clearplay provides. We would love to be able to watch more movies on Netflix and a Clearplay filter service would be fantastic.

It would be awesome if Netflix teams up with Vidangel or Clearplay. We hardly watch any movies on Netflix for the lack of the filtering services provided by Vidangel and Clearplay. If we have the choice between watching a movie with offensive profanity or inappropriate sexual content, and not watching a movie at all, we'd choose the later.

Casey Fitzgerald

Please make this happen Netflix

Courtney Williams

I had to cancel my subscription to netflix because the content of some of the shows and movies was not family friendly. If netflix were to partner with clearplay I would pay extra for those features!

Please add some kind of filtering service to Netflix.

Chad Good

This would be awesome. Being able to watch great movies without having to hear all the senseless ignorant dialog. Would feel much safer letting my kids watch movies without them picking up bad habits.

Doug Gainforth

Please make this possible

Michael Dowgiewicz

I would really like to see this happen!

Do I need to worry about book publishers taking me to court because I underline passages, skip chapters about characters I don't like, or write my own notes or counterarguments in the margins?! Do I not have a right to fast-forward through a scene? Should the streaming services be sued for offering paid options that "censor" out commercials? People ought to have the freedom to edit and regulate the content they consume IN THE PRIVACY OF THEIR OWN HOME (no less) so long as they've not pirated it. That is an implicit right of conscience.

Josiah wilson

please form a partnership and allow clearplay to work with Netflix!

Brandon Todd

I would love to see the ability to filter all the swearing, nudity, and unnecessary content that plagues our society. VidAngel is fighting, but I would love to see Clearplay allow other streaming platforms.

I have been a long time user of the TV Guardian and Clearplay technologies. I am disappointed that ClearPlay has chosen to team up with only Google Play at this time. However, I then became excited about the VidAngel technology which allows us to stream movies & filter out all the objectionable content, especially the religious profanity, but (as I understand the process for using VidAngel, and anyone can correct me if I am wrong) I was disappointed in the way you have to go about buying the movie stream to then sell it back to VidAngel at the buy back price within 24 hours of purchase in order to pay for the video stream as a rental or rental like. It makes me feel as if they are hoping you forget to sell back the movie stream so you can pay full price and own it. I would love to see ClearPlay & Netflix team together and provide a stream filtering capability to their customers - of which I am one. If VidAngel changes their process for renting movie streams then ClearPlay may end up losing many customers. I will give my loyalty to the first company that allows me to stream filtered movies without having to buy and sell them back in order to rent the movie, or the first company which allows me to stream filtered movies from Netflix, Amazon, or Hulu Plus. P.S. I am Kindle Fire user. Thanks for the opportunity to post my comments. Let's make this happen ASAP.
