Netflix's Password Sharing Crackdown: What You Need to Know.

Netflix has delayed its plan to launch a paid password-sharing program globally, including in the US, until the end of June. The company had earlier planned to introduce it by the end of March. Netflix co-CEO Greg Peters said the delay was to make the transition as smooth as possible for members.

Netflix estimates more than 100 million households worldwide share passwords with other people.
