Netflix cracks down on account sharing: Only for family use and strictly control remote login

According to foreign media reports, the US streaming platform Netflix will begin to implement new anti-password sharing regulations from March, limiting password sharing to within a family and not sharing passwords in different locations. "Netflix accounts are still shareable, but only within the same family. Your device will be linked to your primary location. Netflix now requires users to connect to your primary location's wifi once every 31 days, open the Netflix app or website, and choose to watch content."

To this end, "Netflix will encourage non-local users who attempt to log in using your account to register their own accounts and will block their logins before they do so. Netflix will not automatically charge account owners whose information is used outside of their home."

If users who previously shared accounts in different places create their own new accounts, Netflix will open information transfer services to them, so that they can transfer the drama recommendations and viewing records of the previous account to their new account. If you want to use the old account to watch Netflix while traveling, you can apply for a temporary verification code when logging in on a device in a different place, which can be used for 7 consecutive days.
