1. What is happening
2. What do we know

Who you can share your Netflix account with since March

The rules for sharing accounts are also changing in Italy. Here’s everything you need to know: what a household is, its primary location, and how access controls work

What is happening

The problem, judging by the reports recorded on Downdetector, it seems to affect Netflix globally. The site has placed the alert in the United States, Belgium, France, Switzerland, India and Canada, among others.

Judging by the comments of the reader Wiredwe can reconstruct the problems faced by users: inability to access your account; inability to upload content; disservices between various profiles linked to the same account (some log in, some don’t). In a screenshot posted by a Netflix reader warns of having difficulties with streaming on all devices.

“Unable to access services”, is the message that appears on the Netflix home page to many users. There was no lack of irony on social networks on the coincidence between the announcement of the methods of strict password sharing and profiles from March and down, although it is clear that the two events are unrelated.

What do we know

Not much at the moment. Apart from user reports, the company has not released any communications in this regard, neither internationally nor locally. Indeed, on Twitter he released the spot for a new docu-series without responding to the numerous requests for clarification from users, even to the accounts of Netflix local branches. Some users may find themselves in the lucky situation of not experiencing disruptions connected to the streaming platform. It seems that Netflix is ​​visible on televisions, while the biggest problems are experienced via the app.
