Anyone have an info on or willl they be cracking down on Netflix account sharing for those of us who have Netflix via Optik TV Subscription...

Looks like Netflix is backing down from their earlier announcement: https://parade.com/tv/netflix-backtracks-password-sharing-rules-internet-backlash-2023

@BobArthur  That article is a week old and came out before the Canadian password sharing restrictions were announced. Netflix has NOT retracted any announcements for Canadian users so far.

Hmmm.......I got my link from a Canadian site so I just assumed that it was showing what was going to happen to Netflix users in Canada. Admittedly - I didn't read the article thoroughly as I don't have a Netflix account.

It's coming. Account holders should have received an email with details. You will be required to specify a primary location by February 21st. If you access Netflix you will likely see popups asking to do this. More here:

Ok, but if we are willing to pay for an additional household how will those of us who have a subscription through TELUS pay for it?
