Netflix absolutely enforced this in the US last year. I was sharing an account with my sister and we started getting notices about choosing a "home base" for our devices so Netflix could register it on their side to enforce if anyone outside of that initial IP began leveraging it.
So what if you travel, can you not stream from a hotel since it's a different IP address?
I don’t know about Netflix, but last time I tried, YouTube TV let you stream from not your “home” for like a week at a time
Netflix is every 30 days the device has to be connecting from the home IP.
