In case you missed it, Maxis has announced its new Maxis Family Plans, positioning the offering as an all-in-one connectivity solution designed to simplify how households manage home internet and mobile lines. Marketed around the idea of “More Connections, Less Complications,” the plans combine high-speed fibre broadband, unlimited mobile data, and bundled entertainment into a single package.

In the footsteps of Netflix and Disney+, YouTube seems to be stepping up enforcement of its long-standing rule that all members of a Premium Family plan must reside in the same household. While this requirement has existed since at least 2023, it was rarely policed—until now.

Back in early November 2023, Disney+ began its password-sharing crackdown but only in Canada. Clearly following Netflix's footsteps, the company now has a deadline to go global, according to sources.
