Netflix said the same and got cold feet. I'm still sharing my account. Wonder if Disney will go through with it.
Netflix absolutely enforced this in the US last year. I was sharing an account with my sister and we started getting notices about choosing a "home base" for our devices so Netflix could register it on their side to enforce if anyone outside of that initial IP began leveraging it.
So what if you travel, can you not stream from a hotel since it's a different IP address?
You can, as long as you check in that device at the "home base" with your other devices every 30 days. At least that's what I remember from the fuzzy details.
We unsubscribed when it happened, only recently subbed again to watch some stuff, but I think we'll pause again since we're all caught up.
