Netflix Just Announced A Price Increase That Will Affect All Customers—People Are Not Happy About This!

How many times, in the last few years alone, have you thought about what to do at night and ended up happily snuggling under a blanket and watching something great on Netflix? The streaming giant has been a significant part of our lives, especially during the pandemic — which is why it’s unusual and surprising to hear people complaining about Netflix. But a recent announcement has some fans split. Netflix just announced a price increase that will affect all customers — and people are not happy about this.

Netflix released a statement this week announcing that it plans to test out a new method of profiting: it will allow primary Netflix account holders to pay an additional fee that will let friends and family use their account without paying for their own subscription. Of course, the streaming app knows very well that many Netflix account holders are already granting other people access to their account so that they can watch what they want without paying for it. This action goes against one of Netflix’s basic rules, that a customer’s account “may not be shared with individuals beyond your household.” So far, the test has been rolled out in South America and Centra America.
