Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+: How do you know if someone has access to your account and how do you protect yourself?

Who hasn’t lent their Netflix account to an ex-partner or friend who doesn’t want to pay the subscription fee? After all, until recently the streaming platform promoted this app, turning it into a real selling point. One subscription, up to five user profiles. The word was good, but of course it’s about to end in a few months.

Indeed, it’s been a few months since the streaming leader announced that he plans to end account sharing, which is supposed to take place in France this summer. Unfortunately, as with advertised formulas, the competition is expected to do the same. In other words, maybe it’s time to list all the people who use your account in the streaming subscriptions you’ve paid for.

That’s why we recommend that you see individual methods that will allow you to disconnect third-party users from your account on each of the most popular streaming platforms. Ready? Let’s go !
