SOPA Images/ShutterstockHBO Max largely struck an indifferent tone around password sharing before WarnerMedia, which owned the service, merged with Discovery last spring.
Executives at AT&T, which formerly owned WarnerMedia, indicated that HBO Max has been able to manage password sharing effectively without a large-scale crackdown, Deadline reported.
However, a new life is on the horizon for the streaming service, as HBO Max prepares to merge with Discovery+ this spring, creating a new streaming service set to launch this summer, Insider's Travis Clark reported in August.
It's unclear how the new service might handle password sharing after it launches, but for now HBO Max users seem to have no trouble borrowing passwords from one another.
