Netflix “Account Sharer, Create Your Own Account”

For paid services like Netflix, you pay a monthly fee and you can enjoy content like movies, animations, and dramas to your heart’s content. Among users, account information is shared by several people in order to cut down on spending even a little. To crack down on these users, it turns out that Netflix notifies users to create their own accounts.

According to reports that Netflix has begun cracking down on account sharing, if you share an account with family or friends and don’t live with the account holder on Netflix users’ screens, you will be asked to create your own account to continue watching Netflix. It is said that they are encouraged to create a new account.

There’s a Verify Later button on the screen, so it looks like you can ignore this notification and continue using Netflix, but I don’t know how often the notification will appear in this case. In addition, it seems that notifications for users sharing accounts to create their own accounts are only being made to users who watch Netflix on TV.

According to a study conducted by Netflix, 50% of users share an account. Therefore, it is pointed out that Netflix is a loose service for account sharing. In addition, Netflix limits the number of simultaneous viewing devices in the plan, and the terms and conditions contain a phrase prohibiting sharing passwords for accounts other than family members, saying that they cannot be shared with people other than the customer’s household.
