Yes, the article does not give a clear answer. However, simply looking at the text of the CFAA leaves little doubt that you'd be in violation if Netflix clearly communicates that you aren't allowed to log in with someone else's account.

It's hard to imagine how an account holder could authorise you to access Netflix in a situation where Netflix explicitly communicates to you that such account sharing is forbidden.

If Netflix changes their mind and adds a banner on the login page telling you otherwise, it suddenly becomes unauthorised access.

As far as I understand, it probably is https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2016/12/take-two-ninth-circuit...

This seems like a clear-cut example of unauthorised access, at least if Netflix chooses to clearly communicate that you aren't allowed to use someone else's account. https://www.cps.gov.uk/legal-guidance/computer-misuse-act#_T...

Probably the same in most of the world.

Pretty sure most people with block heaters have these, they run off the same power source https://pic.beely.crasman.cloud/BVC-228/BVC228_11.jpg

Almost all ICE cars I've seen sold in Nordic countries during the past 30 years have an outlet on the passenger side to power these. I think these have been a thing since the 70s though.

>Wow. That would be "nearly every modern gas vehicle in north America".

>Seriously. Running a cold petrol engine under low load in freezing conditions only for heating i just simply a bad idea. Never understood how this is even remotely OK in the US. This is illegal in most of Europe. And for good reason.

My German BMW 7 series definitely had remote start (and an auxiliary heater too). Maybach GLS has an auxiliary heater.

These are hardly uncommon features in vastly cheaper cars either. Various Webasto systems have been around for ages, often installed by OEMs.
