Netflix removes an item if it receives a written government takedown demand and can't otherwise reach an agreement with authorities, as it wants to abide by local laws. However, it does fight those takedown requests. It took Brazil to court over one related to The First Temptation of Christ, a satire that depicts Jesus as a gay man. The nation's Supreme Court ruled in Netflix's favor last month, allowing it to keep the movie in its streaming library there.

The company laid out the requests and its compliance with them in an environmental, social and governance report, which it will publish once a year. The report also covers Netflix's environmental impact and energy use, as well as diversity in terms of its workforce and output.

Correction, 7/22/20, 3:15PM ET: This story originally said that Netflix removed the Scandinavian TV series The Bridge from its service in New Zealand; it actually removed a documentary with the same name. We apologize for the error.
