Netflix Inc. is strengthening parental controls, offering more tools to limit what kids can watch on the world’s most popular paid streaming service.
Parents can now filter out titles they deem inappropriate and protect individual profiles with a PIN so kids can’t use them, the company said Tuesday. These changes take effect for customers in all 190 countries where the streaming service is available.
