Netflix finally cracked down on password sharing and explained how its new feature would work

Netflix announced that over 100 million households were using a shared password. This is one of the issues it plans to tackle following the loss of 200,000 subscribers in the last quarter.

Netflix plans to kickstart its scheme by sending an alert to account holders who have enabled the use of their passwords outside their homes as the first step to generating all the revenue it lost in the previous quarter.
