"Disney and Hulu to Enforce Password-Sharing Crackdown, Following Netflix's Lead"

Disney and Hulu are following in Netflix's footsteps by cracking down on streaming password sharing, with Hulu set to start limiting account sharing outside of the owner's household from March 14. The updated user agreements for Hulu, Disney+, and ESPN+ explicitly state that users cannot impersonate someone else by using their username or password, although it's unclear when this language was added. Disney's CEO had previously hinted at addressing this issue in the future, with the move expected to take effect in 2024.

"Streaming Crackdown: Disney, Hulu, and ESPN+ to Enforce Password Sharing Rules"

Disney is set to crack down on password sharing for its streaming services, including Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+, with new limitations on sharing accounts outside of households starting March 14. The updated user agreements explicitly prohibit impersonation or misrepresentation and allow the company to analyze accounts for compliance. Disney CEO Bob Iger previously hinted at this move, emphasizing its importance for business growth. This follows a successful crackdown by Netflix, which led to a surge in new subscribers as password "borrowers" created their own subscriptions.
