Kalshi is threatening legal action against Netflix over its new documentary Instadocs: The Prediction Games, which premiered on 26 July and features an interview with Tarek Mansour, the CEO of Kalshi.
According to a Netflix-authored article about the documentary, it “drops viewers into the red-hot center of betting fever.” The article furthers that it “features interviews with those who own the game, including Polymarket CEO Shayne Coplan and Kalshi CEO Tarek Mansour, as well as regulator Michael Selig, head of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.”
According to reports, Kalshi threatened legal action against the streaming giant even before the documentary was released, with a cease-and-desist letter sent to Netflix on 24 July, alleging “false and misleading statements.”
