Disney Plus is cracking down on password-sharing by requiring users in different households to pay an additional 'Extra Member' fee, reflecting a similar strategy to Netflix.
The service now analyzes users' IP addresses and devices to identify and cut off additional households using the same account, with the aim of reducing unauthorized password-sharing.
For users in unfamiliar locations, Disney will require a verification code sent to the account holder's email, adding an extra step for accessing the service.
Disney Plus's new rules, while still allowing mobile and travel use, create challenges for users trying to log in from second residences due to the email code requirement.
