Back to the pirate life I guess.
Litterally this. I won't (and most people won't) feel morally wrong once I stop paying for Disney's content.
I mean if you were sharing someone's password, wouldn't you already not be paying? If you were paying for an account, you would have your own password so this would not be an issue.
I'm not pointing this out to be "pro Disney" because I couldn't give a half-shit there, but I always have to remind people that password sharing is bad security and shouldn't be done.
I have 2 homes, I’m not paying for Hulu twice.
Haha let me play the world's smallest violin for your sad situation there.
I have only one home, but I actually did pay for Hulu twice by accident when I realized that 2 of us had an active account. Canceled the extra one immediately so I'm only paying for one. But it was only about $8 per month for a few months, so I didn't quite starve.
I mean that situation describes almost any student in higher education, along with people in long term relationships who are yet to move in together - frankly those two cases more than likely make up the majority of people with two homes
