Increasingly, Netflix has tried to ban the sharing of passwords. This is a useful measure so that the same account is not used several times and by different people. The alternative was proposed in the last months of 2022 and has been put into practice since last Thursday, the 19th. Tests have begun!
The sharing practice, as indicated in the platform's document, "harms our long-term ability to invest in and improve Netflix, as well as to grow our business." Given this positioning of the company, the attempt will be to completely prohibit this division of accounts between users who do not live together.

The bans have already been applied since June last year in some Latin countries. The streaming platform reinforced by saying that it will apply the paid “sharing” until the month of March 2023.
"While our terms of use limit Netflix use to one family, we recognize this is a change for members who share their accounts more broadly," they said.
So far, the company has not provided details on how it wants to enable the new sharing, but there are indications that the established standard will be similar to what has already been seen in other countries. In other locations, users have the option of adding extra addresses to access series and movies from streaming.
The extra value varies between R$9 and R$16 per country that is part of the new model.
Remembering that the extra is more than the one already paid for the subscription. The subscriber holder may have access to users connected and linked to the account at any time. These will be new features that the company will implement. She will inform everyone of any changes made.
The account can be accessed even if the user is traveling. If he changes his location, it is impossible not to think that the user will not be able to access his movies and series, but Netflix has already solved that!
Testing in Latin American countries ensured that the subscriber could stay for two weeks at another address. If you pass the deadline, you will need to hire an extra account. The data sources that Netflix will use will be IP address and location.
