Disney+ set to act on password sharing, starting in June


Disney has vowed to crack down on password sharing for its Disney+ streaming service

Bob Iger, CEO of the Walt Disney conglomerate outlined how changes will take effect in June in some jurisdictions with a wider enforcement of login credentials to be applied by September. Speaking to CNBC, Iger tipped his hat toward rival service Netflix after it brought in similar curbs on password sharing, resulting in a massive addition of 100,000 new accounts just two days after its crackdown was applied. In response, Peltz gave a follow-up interview to CNBC immediately after the Disney CEO, stating he would retreat to the sidelines as long as Iger and the board deliver on their words.
