Netflix's Plan to curb password sharing



Share:
Netflix plans to enforce account sharing restrictions in Q1 2023 by using information such as IP addresses, device IDs, and account activity to determine if an account is being used within the same household. 

If logins from a device outside the household are detected, the primary account holder will be prompted to verify the login via code within 15 minutes. 

The restrictions apply even when the account owner is traveling. 

There is no mention of permanent locking out users who don't comply with the recommendations in the updated FAQ.
