So I have to check because I haven't noticed this have, they actually implemented this crackdown for everyone everywhere, because I'm successfully sharing my Netflix password with my parents and nothing seems to have happened yet.

The original plan was to keep going with Netflix until they actually shut down the account because I'm only really maintaining it for my parents, but Netflix have ruined it by not doing anything.

I had forgotten about the crackdown until I wanted to browse through on my parents' account, and it said I had to update the account location if I wanted access. It probably still works fine if you're in the same household.
