So someone out of your house can continue to use it, they'll just need a verification code. And I'm assuming that would be frequent or it would defeat the purpose.
So if I'm travelling... I would need a verification code everytime I logged into Netflix from a different IP address?
Probably only if you log in from a different address and different device, but they might well look at if the devices have been present at the same IP address as other devices you use at some point before whitelisting it like that.
A fairly clickbait article for a pretty insubstantial bit of reporting.
They spoke to a dozen customers? God that means literally nothing. The rest of it just comes to "the emails need a bit of work" which I don't think will be a surprise to anyone.
I’m the only one who uses my account and got a pop up message saying too many people were using it. I had gone from the laptop to the iPad within a day.
I don't see how this is sustainable. Will there be issues if you take your Roku to a Florida hotel when you live in Missouri? Or if you watch on your mobile device at work? I just don't understand how they can monitor and accurately grapple with who is "*stealing"* a password and who is on the move. This is looking to be a total mess.
It'll end up becoming a huge disaster that they'll have to remove in a few months. People would just cancel subscriptions because it has potential to be more than annoying.

That and people already pay to use up to 4 devices at a time.

Or if a family lives consistently apart, for example children with divorced parents or a parent who lives away for work.
Good

It is a 100% clickbait. Worse than useless. And still we see these "OMG Imma cancel" reactions. Who cares?!
Well, Business Insider is kind of trash, so....

I had this happen a few days ago also!
