In the past, it was said that sharing passwords was love, why now ask for an extra fee?

Recently, Netflix has announced that it will “martial law” and strictly control customers’ account sharing behavior., and additional charges may apply for additional users who do not belong to the same household. This is considered one of the solutions to help them improve their revenue after a rather unsatisfactory quarter and lose up to 200,000 paid subscribers.

However, it is clear that this is not the information that users want, especially when not long ago, Netflix increased the price of the service in a number of countries around the world. And so some people “digged” an article from 5 years ago on Netflix’s Twitter with the content: “Love is sharing a password” (rough translation: If you fall in love, you must share your password) to “show off” the account sharing feature on your streaming platform. At the moment, this article is nothing more than a “self-destruct” phase to their reputation.

Netflix received all the bricks when netizens

A very strong “self-destruct” phase of Netflix, and of course, netizens will not miss this “coffee” opportunity.

And you know, once the netizens grasp the weakness in their hands, no one can resist their fierce combat ability. On Twitter, many users are currently re-tweeting or commenting on Netflix’s 2017 status line with sarcasm and harsh criticism.

For example, user Alejandro Lozada “spins” Netflix by pointing out all of their absurd schemes: “Falling in love is about becoming the most expensive streaming service in the world, canceling all your favorite series without warning, and then complaining about customers sharing passwords. Who are you going to blame?“.

This means that you don’t love your customers. That’s why the price increases when sharing passwords”, commented Mas user.

Netflix is ​​facing a lot of criticism for going against its original credo.

However, as is common sense in any debate on social media, not everyone is against Netflix’s plan. One netizen said: “Love is love, but who doesn’t need money. I’m glad Netflix realized how stupid and naive they themselves were (by letting customers freely share accounts). Of course, when they are just starting out, they will attract many users. But later on, Netflix will realize that they have missed the opportunity to add another 100 million customers to their team, all because of the password sharing feature.“.

And finally, there is always a third party, neutral, objective, not defending anyone, for example the following opinion:I guess Netflix’s new plan is to “protect the customer”, right? But really, they should admit that they made the wrong decisions about their entire series, causing the user base to decrease.“.

After increasing service fees for accounts in some countries, Netflix wants to charge an additional fee for those who “use” someone else’s account without being in the same household.

Indeed, strictly speaking, Netflix’s terms and policies are very clear: Users must not share passwords with anyone living outside of their household. However, that doesn’t stop customers from freely sharing their accounts with friends, lovers or even strangers to keep costs down each month.

Currently, Netflix is ​​conducting a trial of increasing fees for “extra” users in Chile, Costa Rica, and Peru., before a global rollout in the near future, possibly in 2023. Each such sub-account will incur an additional $2.99.
