Netflix issues urgent two-month warning as many face being banned from streaming

Netflix will launch a crackdown on password sharing in coming months, the streaming giant has officially confirmed.

The streamer, which boasts hugely popular shows like Wednesday, Squid Game and Stranger Things under its banner, will ban sharing accounts across multiple households. The warning from Netflix has confirmed the crackdown will begin in the first quarter of the year - either February or March.

From then, people hoping to share an account across multiple households will need to fork out an additional fee for the privilege. They have confirmed that people will still be able to access the streaming platform while travelling, Birmingham Mail reports.
