In hopes of capturing lost revenue, Netflix has recently announced that it will do the unthinkable (for many) and cracked down on password sharing. Soon, the days when you could share your Netflix account with all your siblings and closest friends will be a memory of the past.

The world’s pioneer video streamer has started to make life a little more difficult for password-sharers who don’t live in the physical household of the main account holder. The new initiative will first affect three countries outside the United States, which include Chile, Costa Rica, and Peru.

The not-so-bad situation is that Netflix doesn’t plan to simply halt those shared accounts. In its place, the company will set an extra fee for those accounts being used by multiple people outside of the same household. The price varies from country to country but averages at around $2.99 for every sub-account.

Netflix’s plan to capture its lost revenue is set to start with an alert sent to account holders whose passwords are being used by folks in different households.

According to personnel at Microsoft, its researchers have recently new evidence of an unusual phenomenon that’s pivotal to its plans to build general-purpose quantum computers.

The marvel, known as a Majorana zero mode, is likely to ease the path for topological quantum computing, otherwise known as the technological approach that’s preferred by Microsoft’s Azure Quantum program.

But what is quantum computing? In comparison with the straightforward one-or-zero world of traditional computing, quantum computing manipulates quantum bits or qubits, that can represent ones and zeroes at the same time until the results are readout.

According to scientists, the quantum approach can solve certain types of issues that have been a headache for ages, such as network optimization or simulations of molecular interactions. Also, the creation of hardware and software for “full-stack” quantum computing systems can take on a far wider range of applications and this is where the Majorana zero modes come into play.

The sole existence of the Majorana phenomenon proves that humans are closer to the creation of topological qubits and assembling a quantum computer. Even though there’s still work to be done, Microsoft’s scientists have full confidence that they are on the right path towards developing a quantum machine that will allow computation on a whole new level that’s closer to the way nature works.

Isn’t science fascinating?
