That's been a policy for a while, the sign up page prominently says "Plan members must be in the same household".

No idea if its enforced though.

I have 2 homes. Every time I "go up north" I have to switch my Netflix household and then back again when I return. This sounds like that won't even be possible.

If it works like Youtube TV you are given the option to switch household locations when you get the nag screen.
