On Wednesday, Netflix announced that it is testing measures to charge users who share their passwords outside of their household., in another test last year, Netflix asked customers with accounts outside their households to verify the account via text or email code or to start their own free 30-day trial. Netflix’s terms and conditions forbid password-sharing, however, they haven’t done much to enforce the rule on the users.
“We’ve always made it easy for people who live together to share their Netflix account, with features like separate profiles and multiple streams in our Standard and Premium plans. While these have been hugely popular, they have also created some confusion about when and how Netflix can be shared. As a result, accounts are being shared between households – impacting our ability to invest in great new TV and films for our members,” Netflix said in a blog post on Wednesday.
