Netflix has extended its crackdown on password sharing to Canada, New Zealand, Portugal and Spain

Netflix\n \n has extended its crackdown on password sharing to Canada, New Zealand, Portugal and Spain. Users in these countries will now have to pay to give people they don’t live with access to their account, after similar rules were trialed in Latin America last year. Under the new rules, subscribers to Netflix’s Standard or Premium plans will be able to pay for up to two people outside of their household to use their account. The cost of adding a new person will be $7.

“Over the last year, we’ve been exploring different approaches to address this issue in Latin America, and we’re now ready to roll them out more broadly in the coming months, starting today in Canada, New Zealand, Portugal and Spain,” Netflix said in the post. The company, which has turned a blind eye to password sharing for a number of years, said there was “confusion” among users about “when and how” they could share their accounts.

Sign up to Prime and Paramount+. If my Premium account is going to be restricted, I am cancelling. Netflix has over estimated its value to the public. boycottnetflixcanada crtc

What about my spouse, who lives in 2 hrs away due to work? Do they get to say we're two 'households', even though we're married? If so, we'll just drop it. Many other options anywaya.

Can't wait to see them lose money as people cancel their accounts.

So I don’t understand why it’s still in Canada, I just cancelled. CancelNetflix They are a joke. Pretending it was an error in the states.

I contacted netflix about what to do because I live in two locations. The customer service agent said I should buy a SECOND ACCOUNT. Like what?!

As a Portuguese with netflix in house, but an avid user or prime and hbo mas, hope it's worth it, losers. You don't even have good enough shows for me to care. We'll just cancel it out of spite (there's 5 of us in one house, it would be the same for us)
