Netflix has confirmed that its crackdown on the sharing of passwords will begin soon. The streaming giant said the tightening of its rules will begin in the United States and other countries during the current quarter.
This means it will be brought in between April to June, so password sharing will be banned by July. Under the current rules, Netflix subscribers are told they're not supposed to share their passwords with people outside their household.
However, this has not stopped users from giving their account details to friends and family so they can save cash, the Mirror writes. In a statement released today, Netflix said: "We learn more with each rollout and we've incorporated the latest learnings, which we think will lead to even better results.
