    I'm wondering how it's going to react to VPN usage = ie my account will show umpteen different regions, but the same MAC addresses and devices as before.

    I've got no problems with Netflix getting the $ they deserve in terms of outside of household PW sharing, but if I'm stuck with the Canadian only catalogue, which sucks balls, I'll be ditching Netflix. "Fair" should go both ways, and why should we be paying the same or more in Canada than what USA customers do for a catalogue that is 33% or more larger. And better.

    I thoroughly agree. On the other hand, my very very stock-savvy friend has chosen to buy a bunch of their sharesˇ!!!ˇ

    I can't fathom this gamble working out for him, but I was wrong once several years ago.
    Fuckin $420 meow and this Bitch Wrinkle is now talking about targeting $430 for a sell. Bought for $360.
    Eat my fuckin ass!!!!

    I'm just thankful I'm in this guy's will. Nothing beats someone winning on an unlikely gamble with their own money where I'm a beneficiary!
    Absolute madness! This guy has cracked the code and I'm grateful for his efforts.

    I'm bumping this up:

    Has the password sharing come in effect yet? I had gotten a pop up on Netflix that my last day will be on August 31st, but it's still working.

    It seems to be very random. Sometimes when my sister uses my account, it gives her the message that she's not allowed to watch it from her location. Other times it works without issues.

    Only the first episode of every show works for me at work before I cancelled.

    My Netflix sub through Telus still seems to have none of this nonsense

    Got my fire tv stick over to the person's house who pays the bill.
    Ran it for a few seconds.
    Working at my place again. But we're not daily Netflix watchers.
    Aug 28 -??? Stay tuned. Probably another 3-4 months.

    Looks like Disney+ is following suit, got an email about them raising prices/offering new tiers and also implementing account sharing restrictions.

    Streaming going the way of cable, kick off the slow death.

    Monthly went from 129 to 199 Turkish Lira. This is outrageous.

    It finally happened. Got the screen yesterday on my parents' account saying this is not in your home network. If you're traveling request a code. I don't know what I will do, don't think I want to make a new account will see if I miss it for a while first.

    Insert WestJet and Air Canada comparison.
    The cable companies didn't even have to fight. Instead, just stand back and wait for the greed of humanity to come to fruition.
    Who is "saving money" now with Prime + Netflix + Paramount + Disney + Starz + Crave +++ ?
    Someone should start a class action suit so I can get a $40 cheque in 2028.

    How tough to get to the "home" Wifi and turn on the Netflix app for a second? Buys a few months.

    Recently went this way as well. $174 for a year of services, no brainer.

    My dad's account and he's in Calgary and I am in Edmonton so definitely not worth carrying my 70" TV's to Calgary for that. It does give an option to click on 'I am traveling' and it supposedly sends an email to the account holder with a code. I could use that I am sure but that too likely just temporary or for a short duration. Just not worth it I guess.

    Someone smarter than me probably knows how to VPN and set it so your ip matches or emulates your dad's internet.
