Netflix Is Testing New Crackdown On Password Sharing


So it seems like Netflix is a basically saying get the fuck off Mrs.Flix Netflix Account If You Don't Fit In Any Of These Categories.

• You Ain't Fucking Mrs.Flix
  
• Yo Mommy Ain't Mrs. Flix
  
• You Don't Live In The Same House As Mrs. Flix
  

Just a nice little laugh I Thought....

Netflix has never made a big deal about password-sharing, but a new test suggests the company may be reconsidering.

Netflix is trying out a new policy with some customers, prompting certain people to sign up for a separate account if they aren't watching with the subscriber.


The message reads: "If you don't live with the owner of this account, you need your own account to keep watching." The Streamable first reported about the trial.

According to a spokesman, Netflix tries "hundreds" of tests a year with select customers.

"This test is designed to help ensure that people using Netflix accounts are authorized to do so," Netflix said in a statement.

The trial may not lead to a larger crackdown around password sharing. The test could be applied for account security as well as sharing passwords.

About 33% of all Netflix users share their password with at least one other person, according to research firm Magid. Netflix's basic plan costs $8.99 per month. The company's standard plan is $13.99 per month, which allows users to watch Netflix on two screens at the same time. Historically, Netflix hasn't done much to stop password-sharing, as strong growth in subscriber numbers and its stock price offset any concerns about lost revenue.

Easily bypassable with software that spoofs your geolocation/dns or even if they're using the ip as a locator, you just need to use ip in the same city most likely. Anyways i don't think it will be a permanent thing nor do i think it will be issued on a global scale.

Seems like this is tailored to screw over normies and not us. Finding cracked Netflix accounts is already a PITA without this.
