Netflix prohibits account sharing. Prime Video sticks the pin – masterful answer

There was a loud echo in the media about the fact that Netflix officially started the fight against sharing accounts by people who do not live together. When this happens, users receive a message that a person from outside the household must pay a surcharge of PLN 9.99. According to Discussing Film, in the absence of it, access to Netflix will be blocked. This has its limitations, because the standard package allows you to buy only one user, and the higher package only two. The functionality entered Poland on May 23.

Netflix’s decision caused a wave of discontent among users of the streaming platform. British Prime Video commented on the situation in a funny way on its Twitter, posting a graphic about sharing a password by users. This is in response to a 2017 Netflix tweet in which the streamer wrote: “Love is sharing a password.” As you can see, after six years, the policy of the site has changed a lot…

This Netflix solution was tested in Chile, Costa Rica and Peru in early 2023. Now they have been introduced not only to Poland, but also to the United States and many other countries around the world.
