Netflix Claims It Posted New Password-Sharing Rules on Accident

Earlier this week, the streamer shared new details about its upcoming plans on when and how your account should and shouldn’t be shared. The new rules would require users to verify their home devices each month, block devices outside the home and encourage them to open their own accounts.

However, those new rules were removed from the Netflix Help Center on Wednesday, with Netflix alleging they were posted by accident.

“For a brief time yesterday, a help center article containing information that is only applicable to Chile, Costa Rica, and Peru, went live in other countries,” a Netflix spokesperson said in a statement.
