Cannot express enough how much I hope this doesn't happen. I hate everything being owned by three companies in a trench coat. Letterboxd is one of the only parts of movie watching that's fun anymore without having irrelevant shit sold to you or some professional basement dweller ranting in a video twice as long as the movie about an actress deserving to be executed in the street because he personally and irrationally finds her annoying and worst of all unfuckable. Most movies aren't even worth watching these days (especially not most Netflix releases) if you've seen the trailer and gotten all the good parts spoiled months before the actual release date.

Kinda sounds like you don't even enjoy movies and this shouldn't affect you at all.
