Even in this poorly made comparison shot I made you can tell the difference between streaming and "self hosting" (lemmy.world)

Honestly, the netflix "single family home" thing isn't as bad as I first imagined. I still share my account and we never have any problems.

That means you're not yet being affected by it.

[-] abbadon420@lemm.ee 1 points 9 months ago

Yeah I have. They've propted me a couple times to confirm that I am in the single family home. Just confirm it and that's that. (We've made a shared email account for netflix specific). Maybe that's not the full force of the crackdown?

It's not the full force. I shared my account and for a while it was the same, you had to dismiss warnings and say "yeah I'm totally in the same household", but about a month ago it stopped working entirely.

I stopped paying. I could justify sharing my netflix account, but £18 for a single person household, with me not being much of a TV watcher in the first place? Nah.

If they had just been slightly less greedy, I'd have happily continued. Shit company.

That's allright. Than I'll stop paying entirely. Until that time I'll keep it on. I've allready got contingencies in place, it's mostly the kids that use it nowadays.
