The step taken by Netflix to prohibit the sharing of the password of its platform by different people has set a precedent in Europe and other countries, and some of its competitors are already following in its footsteps. Disney Plus is the latest to join this trend.
After announced restrictions on account sharing, the company is starting to apply them, and they have already arrived in the United States, after being tested in Canada for a few months. These measures will come into force next March and their arrival in the North American country gives clues about their subsequent extension to other regions.
With this, the company also seeks to get users to pay for an individual subscription or for a family subscription, but only if it is to be used inside the home, which ends with a trend quite followed by the users.
New rules at Disney
Disney no longer wants you to share your account password with others who do not live in your home, and to avoid this it will impose the same limitations as Netflix in this sense, which will cause a certain geographical limitation when using the application.
In fact, new users who register for the application in the United States must already accept these conditions, but those who already have an account have until March 14 to start complying with the new rules. Unlike what happens in the case of Netflix, It looks like Disney won’t offer the ability to add external users
It is not yet known when this measure will reach Europe and the rest of the countries, but everything indicates that it is only a matter of time, since the company could thus slightly increase its revenues. In any case, this will not apply in our country at the moment, so, temporarily, the account may continue to be shared with other people.
