Simone Biles has over 1.7 million followers on Twitter. She recently quoted a tweet by a user who was criticizing the updated policy of the OTT platform Netflix.

Biles said that the reason for her potentially quitting Netflix is that she is lazy and finds it hard to re-enter her password:

​

"i may quit netflix simply because im lazy & hate re-entering my password"

Another user agreed with Simone Biles as he felt the time consumed was equivalent to going back to 1990,

​

​

"This right here is going to be the line in the sand for me. If I ever try to sign on, even once, to find device blocked and it takes me more than say 30 seconds to resolve, I'm cancelling. I'm not waiting on hold to talk to someone over the phone like it's 1990."

One user stated that he would subscribe to Netflix once a month in one year, unlike how he used to do since 2013,

​

​

"Netflix is about to go from an account I have paid for monthly since 2013 to one I may subscribe to for a month once a year to catch up on the 3 things that I would still want to watch."

Another said, 'Netflix is definitely gone,' as he wrote,

"That is funny. It is bad enough that everytime I get a new device I have to do the same kabuki dance with what username and password did I use for all 9 streaming apps. Netflix is definitely gone."

Another fan wrote that she can feel what Simone Biles is feeling. She said that she was thinking about the time consumed to remember and reset passwords.

"I feel you. I was just lamenting today aboit the amount of time consumed by trying to remember (and then resetting because I can’t!) my ever-changing passwords!"

Netflix recently changed its policy of users sharing their passwords. The updated password-sharing policy included procedures to stop members of several households from accessing the same Netflix account.

Every month, Netflix subscribers will have to authenticate their home devices. Users will be urged to register an account on their own at a discounted charge, and devices outside the house will be restricted.
