Netflix explains why cheaper extra member feature is not available in South Africa

Netflix has explained the reasoning behind South African subscribers not getting the option to add discounted extra members to accounts.

After years of not caring all that much about subscribers sharing their passwords with people outside their households, even joking about it in social media posts, Netflix started clamping down on the practice in 2022.
 
I've probably been using netflix for close to 30 years now and they've really started uningratiating themselves with me over the last couple of years.

You used their DVD rental?

How? They were founded in 1997.
 
Such a goddamn complicated model with even more complicated reasoning / justifications.

Just make it available or do not do the password sharing block.
