I feel like other streaming platforms will follow the same process as they’ve proven it’s worked.

    You’re not paying for that though. The terms of service have never allowed giving other people your details and letting people outside your household use your account.

    Also you can still use 4 devices no matter where you are - mobile devices and tablets and laptops are not IP restricted.

      Netflix started out encouraging password sharing, even promoted it on Twitter back in the days.

          So clearly some people did pay for that and it was changed at a later date…

              People are allowed to be pissed off when they do.

                Absolutely they are. Didn’t say they can’t be.

                What they can’t do however is think that they’re entitled to use the service in ways that are against the terms of service.

                  Company decides to change the deal and terms of service to require nudes and accompanying driver’s licenses photos every 21 days in this wild hypothetical

                  Whirlybird: Why do people think they’re entitled to use a private company’s service nude-free while still paying? It’s in the ToS!

                    Whirlybird: unsubscribe if the terms of service are not to your liking

                    rikonium: no I demand the other terms of service! Netflix is a human right!

      Mobile devices are restricted by being forced to connect to your ‘home’ network regularly.

          About a month ago we could not use the account on a smart TV in the rental home because it was away from the home network. Updating the home network wasn’t an option because the family members not on the trip were still watching things at home.

          Being able to watch on a phone, but not on a TV, is stupid.
