From now on, you will no longer be able to use Netflix with your friends or acquaintances as you used to. The streaming platform started to charge 5.99 euros per additional accountthat’s to say, for each profile that is outside of the primary location (which belongs to whoever pays the subscription).

This is how the app itself warns: “Access to devices from certain locations using your account may be blocked“.
