Netflix has announced that users in certain test countries who want to share their account with another household will soon be asked to “add a home” for an extra fee in a bid to clampdown on sharing.

The global streaming platform explained that “a home is a physical location—like your house—where you can use your Netflix on any of your devices, and the number of devices you can watch on at the same time depends on your plan.”
