They're not using it for free, though. If I have a Netflix account with multiple profiles, I'm paying for that. I don't see why I don't get to determine who get to use those profiles.
Particularly after Netflix's own marketing department pushed out that "Love is sharing a password" tweet.
If they wanted to bump the price of multi-profile accounts, fine, but this accusing your customers of wrongdoing for doing something you yourself promoted is bullshit.
The point is that the terms have changed, and that is no longer what is being offered. By all means, be upset, complain about it, whatever. But to say that a business is morally obligated to continue offering a specific service under specific terms simply because they did so in the past is something I genuinely can't follow.
