Hulu is updating its Terms of Service to disallow password sharing among friends, family, and freeloaders. The streaming service is sending out emails to notify users of the new policy, which will go into effect on March 14th. This means that you can only stream on Hulu if you have signed up for its service.

 

More precisely, Hulu is banning its users from sharing their subscriptions outside of their “household.” The term household, according to Hulu, implies “the collection of devices associated with your primary personal residence that are used by the individuals who reside therein.”

Twitch is testing a new Discovery Feed that was first announced last month, with select users where they can explore content from creators on the platform. According to Twitch, the feed will initially display videos in a horizontal format and will later be evolved to show them in a vertical format. Smells like TikTok, doesn’t it?

 

Twitch will begin testing ‘popular and featured’ content in the Discovery Feed and moving forward, will include ‘exclusively featured’ clips in the feed. For now, the integration is only a ‘limited experience’ as described by the platform itself, meaning that it will help it gather important feedback as well as train its algorithm to ensure improved user experience.

 

In another X post, Twitch added that creators can become part of the Discovery Feed experiments by selecting clips that they want to add in the ‘featured’ pool. This option is now available to all streamers and editors on Twitch.
