Streaming the Law: Is Password Sharing on Netflix Illegal in the UK?

The Intellectual Property Office (IPO) in the UK recently announced that sharing passwords for online streaming services such as Netflix is against the law and breaks copyright law. It is common in the UK for people who do not live together to share their streaming service passwords, despite this typically being against terms of service agreements. While it may be unlikely that anyone will face prosecution for password sharing on Netflix, there are still consequences to consider, including account suspension or termination and financial losses for the streaming service. If you want to legally access Netflix content, consider setting up your own account or a joint account with someone you live with and share the cost of the subscription.

LastPass Data Breach: Is it Time to Switch to a Different Password Manager?

LastPass, a popular password manager with over 25.6 million users, recently announced that it had suffered a massive data breach that exposed encrypted password vaults and other user data. The company has not provided much information about the breach, including how many password vaults were compromised or how many users were affected. Given the scale of the breach and LastPass’s lack of transparency and response, it is time for users to consider switching to a different password manager. Options include 1Password, Dashlane, and Bitwarden. It is also a good reminder to regularly review and update your online security practices, including using strong and unique passwords and enabling two-factor authentication whenever possible.

Apple Loosens Control of App Store in Response to EU Regulations

Apple is reportedly taking steps to loosen its control over the App Store, allowing users in Europe to “sideload” software through independent, third-party app stores. The move comes as the European Union passes new laws designed to open up digital platforms to more competition and give users more control over default settings. The changes, which are expected to roll out with iOS 17 next year, mark a major shift in Apple’s business practices and a surprise concession to EU regulators. It remains to be seen whether the changes will be implemented worldwide or only in Europe.

Conlon, who works for a New Jersey based law firm, was flagged by security and told to leave due to her firm’s involvement in personal injury litigation against a venue owned by MSG Entertainment, which operates Radio City Music Hall and produces the annual holiday musical with the Rockettes. Despite not practicing law in New York and not being actively involved in any cases involving MSG, Conlon was unable to see the performance with her Girl Scout troop and was left embarrassed and mortified by the experience.
