Next they'll crack down on folks logged on in more than one location.

Netflix does this, and when my wife and our kid visit my in-laws over the summer the device in one of the two locations loses access a few days before they return. This year I stopped watching Netflix (and logged one of our TVs out) halfway through their trip so as to be sure kiddo would be able to watch Spidey-whatever on the flight home. I'm genuinely not trying to game their system, and would rather pay for access than not, but shenanigans like that are at some point going to send me back to the high seas.
