<p dir="auto">Netflix on Tuesday expanded its crackdown on password sharing to the United States and more than 100 other countries, alerting users that their accounts cannot be shared for free outside of their households.<br />
The streaming video pioneer has been looking for new ways to make money as it faces signs of market saturation, with efforts including limits on password borrowing and a new ad-supported option.<br />
Netflix said it was sending emails about account sharing to customers in 103 countries and territories, including the United States, Britain, France, Germany, Australia, Singapore, Mexico and Brazil.<br />
The emails state that a Netflix account should only be used in one household. Paying customers can add a member outside of their homes for an additional fee. In the US, the fee is $8 per month.<br />

<p dir="auto">I'll ask here too, define household and family @netflix Military members share multiple homes because of mission, deployments and more. Should we have to pay twice if our spouses are deployed, living away from us because of mission or remote assignment? #MilitaryFamiliesMatter<br />
I'm always deployed to a different location.  I've signed in from over 30 devices last month<br />
@netflix, that's pretty rude. Not so much for me but others. Broke College kids, we don't care. Family members deployed, get f*cked. Grandparents, we suck our thumbs at you. I mean, the gubmit says to cancel it and stop eating avocado toast so I can afford a house.</p>

<p dir="auto">They're already making people verify that other locations are part of their household. If people can't verify, they won't be able to access Netflix (unless they're added to the account for $7.99 per month or they create their own paid account).<br />
People have said Netflix confirmed that people in the household away at college, in the military, etc., don't count as part of the same household.</p>

<p dir="auto">True, Netflix's content isn't even worth its current fee, so I doubt many people will pay another $8+ per month. Also, people who travel often and will have to keep reverifying are going to get fed up.<br />
Apparently it worked in Latin America, so they think it will work elsewhere:<br />
“We see a cancel reaction in each market when we announce [paid sharing], which impacts near-term member growth,” Netflix wrote in its quarterly letter to shareholders, pointing to a 450,000-subscriber quarterly loss in Latin America as evidence of the dynamic. “But as borrowers start to activate their own accounts and existing members add ‘extra member’ accounts, we see increased acquisition and revenue.”</p>

<p dir="auto">Fuck Netflix. I subscribed to it for 18 years, but cancelled it in December because I almost never use it and it's retard level expensive for a service that has nothing of interest to me and hasn't for years. I don't miss it at all and don't expect to.<br />
Also cancelled Prime. $17 a month and I literally never watch it, have had it for years, and only gotten free shipping benefits from it like 6 times. I must have been crazy keeping that **** for so long.<br />
Also cancelled Disney+. I'll pick it back up if I need it again but they've really turned me off with their low quality **** in the last year.<br />

<p dir="auto">These people getting all butthurt over having to pay 10 bucks or however much a month sound poor and embarrassing.

<p dir="auto">A month at one location? The message in the OP will show up on your TVs/devices there, and you'll have to verify that that location is "part of your household" or whatever.<br />
I read a comment saying after 31 days, the second verified location will become your home location. So after that, you'd probably have to re-verify your home devices after you go back home. I'm not sure. (I think you only have to verify it once per IP address, so all devices that have previously logged into Netflix will be approved.)</p>

<p dir="auto">They'll probably be accused of being anti-military, so maybe they'll be "Bud Lighted" soon.<br />
This affects a lot of other people too (truck drivers, anyone else who travels for work, vacationers, basically anyone who wants to watch it anywhere else but at home - some may be able to verify the additional locations, but nobody wants to do that over and over again).<br />
The warning says it's for "the people who live with you." If someone starts playing Netflix in their home and they have guests over, should the guests cover their eyes so they don't see the precious Netflix? <img src="https://filmglance.com/discuss/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f644.png?v=8570fb93240" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-android emoji--face_with_rolling_eyes" style="height:23px;width:auto;vertical-align:middle" title=":face_with_rolling_eyes:" alt="🙄" /></p>

Just deleted @Netflix from my firestick, @StreamOnMax has better shows anyway. Looking forward to seeing their stock drop in the next few weeks… fat greedy pigs get slaughtered.<br />
Yeah @netflix is getting the cancel today. That household crap can kiss my ass. It’s also a horrible business decision but you’ll learn that soon enough. Netflix might have just blockbustered themselves #netfilx<br />

@netflix Just got done talking to a rep of yours and they told me that because I am military and my TDY/Deployment could last more than 1 month, I should pay netflix 7.99 so that I don't get locked out. Are yall seriously trying to punish military and traveling workers?<br />
Unfortunate that they don’t consider college students whose permanent residence is with you or deployed military spouses “people you live with”. I have spoken with reps at Netflix and they confirmed this. We may leave Netflix (practically day one members) over this one absurdity.</p>
