- Netflix admitted an unencrypted drive containing an unreleased Nicolas Cage movie was stolen from its offices.
- Production company Op-Fortitude sued Netflix, accusing it of waiting a week to notify them about the theft.
- Netflix offered only to pay for the drive and falsely claimed a key was needed to unlock it, though the drive had already been unlocked.
- Op-Fortitude and financier Simon Afram seek at least $112.5 million in damages, alleging Netflix breached its contract by failing to secure the drive.
- Netflix denies liability, blaming the production company for not encrypting the drive, and says no evidence of a leak exists.
