Editing Disney+ Household Restrictions & Access Limitations (section)

==Technical Implementation Issues==

The problem results from Disney+'s heavy reliance on IP address verification to figure out a customer's household location. This system fails to account for:

#'''Dynamic IP addressing''': Many home internet service providers regularly change customer IP addresses, causing Disney+ to mistakenly think the same physical location is a different household.<ref>User testimonial in Reddit thread: "I get something like this... on my TV... in my living room. The second TV is our house to stop working." Reddit r/DisneyPlus, November 2024.</ref><ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/DisneyPlus/comments/1grrj0o/absolutely_insane/</ref>
#'''Multiple devices in the same physical location''': Users report being required to verify their household even when using multiple devices within the same home on the same network.<ref>User testimonial in Reddit thread: "I had to sign into an Xbox in my own home on my home network with Disney telling me that I wasn't at home. Their system is busted." Reddit r/DisneyPlus, November 2024.</ref><ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/DisneyPlus/comments/1grrj0o/comment/lx9h7p1/</ref>
#'''Cellular data and mobile connectivity''': Users with cellular internet or those using mobile hotspots face have IP address changes constantly as their connection point changes.<ref>User testimonial in Reddit thread: "I've been locked out of my own account for 2 weeks now. It happened before and support fixed it, but it's a pain to go through the whole process again." Reddit r/DisneyPlus, November 2024.</ref>
#'''Technical inconsistency''': The system applies rules differently across device types, with TV-connected devices dealing with stricter limitations than mobile devices.<ref>User testimonial in Reddit thread: "This mostly targets devices connected to TV, so technically you should be fine with Phones or computers."
