Password sharing ‘undermines’ business, warns crackdown will intensify

August 12, 2024 0 Comments

Netflix (NFLX) freeloaders, beware! The company is leaning up its password sharing crackdown.

The company explained it’s been building additional new features to improve the overall Netflix experience, including

Shares of Fox closed 2.9% lower on the news, which the company announced on Monday.
