Netflix getting strict about Account Sharing - What's Netflix's next step And How Can You Prevent Netflix from Blocking Your Devices?

Netflix getting strict about Account Sharing - What's Netflix's next step? 

Netflix revealed the details on its plans to stop people from sharing their family plan passwords.

Only accounts within one household will be shareable. To make sure devices are associated with the primary location, Netflix will ask users to connect to the Wi-Fi once every 31 days.

Traveling and playing Netflix on a device not at home will require the user to request a temporary code for logging in, giving access to the account for 7 days.

Netflix might implement the change only for the North American region for now as these details are not available for access in markets outside United States & Canada.

Can You Still Share Netflix With Someone Who Doesn’t Live With You?

No, accounts are only meant to be used within one house. Netflix will prompt users who try to sign into your account elsewhere to sign up for their own account instead and block their access until they do.

Netflix will NOT begin automatically charging account holders whose information is used outside of their homes.

How Can You Prevent Netflix from Blocking Your Devices?

Signing into home Wi-Fi at least once every 31 days on your devices will make them “Trusted Devices”, which Netflix will remember and leave unblocked.

If your device has been blocked incorrectly, you’ll need to contact Netflix in order to get it unblocked.
