It says the following in the article if you've read it and can also be found in [0] as the source:

“Depending on your role, you may need to work on titles you perceive to be harmful,” the communiqué continued. “If you’d find it hard to support our content breadth, Netflix may not be the best place for you.” [0]

Given the plummeting subscribers, cancellations and password-sharing chaos and a cratering stock crash, they are cleaning up the dead wood and costs, including this and it sort of makes sense here.

Therefore, I find the evidence in this article and the findings in the internal memo highly likely to be true, otherwise they would have kept those workers as if their actions did not impact the company.
