“If you do not live with the owner of this account, you must have your own account to continue watching”, this is the notification that is being sent to some users. To continue watching, it is necessary to prove ownership of the account by message or email. If they are unable to confirm that they are authorized to access, users will be required to create a new account.
In a statement sent to CNBC, Netflix confirmed the test and added that the goal is also to ensure the safety of the users themselves. “This test was created to help ensure that people using Netflix accounts are authorized to do so,” the statement said.
This tool is still being tested and is only active for a limited number of people using the Netflix TV app. The American company has not yet decided whether it will go into effect. This test comes at a time when Netflix’s audience soared, currently having 200 million users worldwide.
… we have a little message to share with you. More and more people read the NOTÍCIAS MAIA, digital newspaper, leader of audiences. Unlike other news outlets, we chose not to make readers pay to read our news, keeping access to information as free as possible. So, as you can see, we need your support.
In order to be able to present you with more and better information, which includes more reports and interviews and which uses an increasingly developed platform and other means, such as video, we need your help.
NOTÍCIAS MAIA is an independent media organization (and always will be). This is important so that we can freely confront any and all types of power (political, economic or religious) whenever necessary.
We believe that if each person who reads and likes to read NEWS MAIA, supports the future of our project, it will become increasingly important for the development of the society we share, at the regional level. For dissemination, sharing and inspection.
So, for as little as € 1, you can support NEWS MAIA – and it only takes a minute. Thanks.
