Netflix intends to crack down on users sharing account passwords

According to The Streamable report, Netflix may crackdown on the account and password sharing behavior on its streaming video platform. Some Netflix users have received a warning message: “If you do not live with the owner of this account, you need your own account to continue watching.” After that, the user will be prompted to verify the account with an email or text verification code or register A separate Netflix account.

Netflix told The Streamable that the test “is designed to help ensure that people using Netflix accounts are authorized.” It is unclear whether the warning was issued based on IP addresses or other indicators.

Netflix’s terms of service do prohibit users from sharing passwords with people outside the home, but many people still do. As early as 2020, Netflix Chief Product Officer Greg Peters told The Wall Street Journal that Netflix will monitor password sharing.

Netflix also has restrictions on the number of devices that can play streaming content at the same time. The basic package of $8.99 restricts one device to play, while the package of $13.99 allows playback on two devices, and the package of $17.99 Allows playback on up to four devices.
