The process of ending an active viewing session on the Netflix application installed on a Samsung television ensures that personal viewing preferences and account details are not accessible to unauthorized users. This action effectively disconnects the device from the user’s Netflix account until the login credentials are re-entered. For example, when relocating a television or sharing a device with houseguests, it is important to perform this action.
Performing this task is important for maintaining account security and privacy, especially in shared living spaces or when selling or donating the television. Historically, neglecting this step has led to unauthorized access to viewing history, watchlist information, and, in some cases, the misuse of subscription benefits. Doing so safeguards personal information and subscription integrity.
