This is the best summary I could come up with:
Starting on November 1st, Disney Plus will begin restricting password sharing.
Disney has not provided many details on how it plans to enforce this policy — its email merely states that “we’re implementing restrictions on your ability to share your account or login credentials outside of your household”.
The announcement comes over a month after Disney’s Q3 earnings call, where CEO Bob Iger said that the company was “actively exploring” ways to address shared accounts.
Disney Plus is just the latest streaming service to attempt to tackle password sharing.
Netflix accounts are restricted based on a user’s IP address; subscribers, depending on the plan they select, have the option of adding additional members to their accounts for an additional fee.
But hey, if it’s any consolation: Canadian users now have access to the cheaper ad-supported tier.
