While normally I would applaud this, this is Texas, so it doesn't have anything to do with what it says and is probably just some rich people playing games.

I had the same initial feeling. My first thought was why Netflix? Is it a proxy CA v TX thing?

It could be spurred on by some recent success in the courts from suits against the likes of Meta and YouTube for similar things.
