Summary
Netflix is preparing to roll out password-sharing guidelines in the US, which has created uncertainty for college students who may not have the disposable income for their own subscription. While Netflix has outlined password-sharing protocols for users in Canada, New Zealand, Portugal, and Spain, it has not provided specifics about what the US plan will look like. Some worry that a crackdown on password sharing could shake up streaming for college students who have just left home, as well as burden lower-income students and their families. However, some college students believe Netflix is too important to give up, and many would likely shell out a few dollars a month to continue using the platform.
