Netflix has cracked down on password sharing, making it much more difficult to share an account outside of your home.
Netflix had to cut down on password sharing, because the missing revenue from all of those accounts made it harder to invest in new original movies and TV.
A Netflix account may be shared, but is meant to be shared only among the users who live in the same household.
Under the current Netflix rules, you’ll have to set a primary location for your account.
If you want to keep Netflix but don’t live with the person you were sharing an account with, then you’ll need to pay for your own Netflix subscription.
Thankfully even though Netflix is cracking down on password sharing, you’ll still be able to watch whether you’re curled up on the couch or relaxing on vacation.
Netflix has always had different content available in different regions.
While you still have the option to use Netflix with a VPN, you won’t have access to the full catalog for any specific region.
If you’re watching Netflix primarily for the original programming, then you should be good to go.
It’s also possible to run into issues on Netflix where it will ask you to turn off your VPN for some region-locked content.
