It was bound to happen sooner or later.
Per Jason Gurwin of The Streamable, Netflix has begun cracking down on instances wherein the service detects that you’re using another user’s password.
The company offered the following statement:
“This test is designed to help ensure that people using Netflix accounts are authorized to do so.”
It isn’t clear if users in the test all need to be on the same IP address to be considered in the same household.
It’s unknown as to whether users within the test need to be on the same IP address to be considered within the same household, and thus allowed to share the password.
Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
