Apparently, it is illegal to share your Netflix password to others. A number of judges stated that violators can be imprisoned for providing the sensitive information even to family and friends only.

Three U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit judges ruled earlier in July 2016 that sharing Netflix passwords is a criminal act. The ruling stemmed from the long-pending case of United States v. Nosal, which focuses on David Nosal, a headhunter who formerly worked for the company Korn/Ferry.

Netflix CEO Reed Hastings (center) says sharing Netflix is "a positive thing, not a negative thing."

 

Suffering a guilty conscience for borrowing someone's Netflix account? The streaming-video giant says don't worry about it.

"We love people sharing Netflix," CEO Reed Hastings said Wednesday at the Consumer Electronics Show here in Las Vegas. "That's a positive thing, not a negative thing."

Hastings' comments come as the growing popularity of video streaming creates a social conundrum for many users of paid digital content services such as Netflix, Hulu and HBO Go. Lots of people do it. At the Emmys in September, host Andy Samberg gave viewers a real HBO Go password.

Others consider it an online faux pas. Some of them worry that sharing passwords violates the terms of service and could be illegal.
