Netflix explains how and why it’s switching to HTTPS streaming
We won’t spoil the magic here, but according to a paper written by Netflix (PDF), it expects that by the end of 2016, most streams will be using TLS encryption.

Still, your workplace IT department may have its own MitM method so it’s not necessarily foolproof, but it’s a start, especially as governments and others may have interest in the data. The move also benefits Netflix, as it tries to keep third-party analytics from easily collecting detailed viewer data.
