Netflix’s Account Sharing Crackdown, ExplainedNetflix’s plan to crackdown on account sharing is heading to New Zealand, but how does the policy work? Netflix’s new account sharing rulesHere’s how it works: users will need to set a primary location for the account. If you’re sharing your account with people outside of your household, you can ‘buy’ extra members that don’t live at the primary location. Account users can transfer their profiles to other accounts if migrating to another household, saving your list, history and recommendations. But speaking broadly, Netflix thinks people are account sharing outside of their homes too much.
