[Netflix](/category/netflix/) announced that it would be ending password sharing next month.The move has been telegraphed for almost a year now, but a lot of users felt like it would create enough of an uproar that the company would back off.But, alas, people will have to log into their “home network” once a month to continue streaming their favorite shows and movies.Besides the difficulty in enforcing just the plan, a lot of viewers are just upset at the very notion of ending password sharing.As different government officials in the United States have been talking about a recession for a while, and amid layoffs all across different tech companies, making people pay that extra money has left a bad taste in everyone’s mouth.Check out some of the funniest posts reacting to the move right here.
“This will
not be a universally popular move,” Netflix CEO Greg Peters said before adding, “[There will be] a bit of cancel reaction to that.”

Former CEO Ted Sarandos had said something similar before.
“It feels a lot like the way you manage a price increase.… Consumers aren’t going to love it right out of the gate, but we need to show them why they should see value,” he argued.

Great point
I think most folks already know that Hulu has been doing what Netflix is proposing.The point is that not doing it is what made Netflix popular and that changing that part of their business model shows a true lack of understanding when it comes to their consumers.— Racial Nichols (@Suite_Tea)

Content is king
The fact that Netflix is tightening their rules when Hulu, Peacock & AppleTV are offering much better programming right now is such a choice.— Peter Monn (@petermonn)

A lot of salt

Not ideal
Netflix, after losing Seinfeld, Friends, Marvel, Disney and becoming infamous for cancelling anything new that people actually like: “let’s make things more difficult and expensive on our users who definitely aren’t going to say ‘fuck this i’ll just watch Hulu’”— Saṃsāra Connor (@griph)
