Disney+ is a different animal in countries that aren't the US.

I'm in Hong Kong, I don't get what you mean. There's no porn or snuff movies on it here either, how tame is it in the US ? I bought it for my 5yo to get her Disney dose, do you guys buy it for even younger children ?

What other countries do you think exist outside the US? Why are there "different animals" of Disney streaming services ? Have you pursued your thought down to even quoting a few examples of what you imagine would happen in Tokyo, Johannesburg or Milan if you started Disney+ ?

He was probably referring to Disney Star which you can get with Disney+ in some countries outside the U.S. https://www.theverge.com/2020/12/10/22165950/disney-star-str...

This is what I'm referring to for the most part. There are other things like Disney+ carrying pro wrestling in other countries like Indonesia.

In the US it's trying very hard to appear kid/family friendly. To the point where the Disney+ versions of PG movies and many TV shows have extra censorship (you can look around online for lists of content that's been bowdlerized on Disney+)

In what way?

It’s a combination of Hulu and something called stars (which might actually be a reference to Hulu content)

Things marketed as stars inside the Disney plus app is content more adult than your typical Disney branding.
