Netflix has had a "no password sharing" policy for a long time now, but there is still an incredibly high degree of password sharing existing among family members. Yet, that does not imply you can share your Netflix login details with just anybody. 

You can imagine a scenario where the individual you've shared your password with now suddenly becomes so comfortable with it. I know it continually comes to mind, but it’s not expected that somebody close to you will begin siphoning as opposed to getting their own Netflix streaming plan.

It just so happens that certain individuals truly do exchange their pride for $8.99, which they would use to pay for a basic plan. One of the risks that come with password sharing is that one of them is actually the sharing itself.

If you are sharing your password in an insecure manner, for instance, through messages, emails, or through another channel where the password is in plain text, there could be a danger of it being intercepted or seen by somebody who isn’t supposed to see it. We've gathered a few posts from individuals who have gone through the experience of what it's like to lament over giving their Netflix login details to someone else.

Keep scrolling for 25 such experiences below.

Giving out Netflix details has a remarkable opposite, which is that it has turned into a definitive indication of love, friendship, and trust among individuals. Moreover, you need to trust whomever you're giving your passwords to as the risks could be huge depending on the kind of account.

It can go from someone changing your password and keeping you out of your account all the way to outright robbery. Anything is possible.
