While many users still complain about Netflix's policy of blocking profile password sharing, the company is making an update that makes it easier to transfer your Netflix profile from a primary account to a new or existing one. Profile Transfer.
How the new update works to make it easier to transfer your Netflix profile
With the function Profile Transfer, Netflix aims to make it as easy as possible to migrate and create new accounts for users affected by password sharing restrictions. Profile Transfer allows users to transfer their personalized movie and TV recommendations, watch history, My List, saved games, and other settings from one Netflix account to another.
This way, if you had a profile on a Netflix account whose password was shared, you can transfer your profile to another already existing account.
Starting today, the profile transfer functionality has been updated to allow transfers to an existing account (instead of requiring a new account)

In recent months, the company Netflix has stepped up its efforts to block password sharing between multiple locations, so now even if you have the maximum Netflix subscription, your account will only be accessible from one primary location. Of course, it is endless nonsense (personal opinion), but the impact will be felt by Netflix in the somewhat longer term. At least in European countries.

The new protection system implemented by Netflix prevents users from sharing passwords with people outside their home. The device connected to a Netflix account must authenticate to the Wi-Fi network associated with that account at least once every 31 days. It's almost impossible to do this on your TV if you plan to use a shared password Netflix account in another location.
