Is Teleparty (Netflix Party) Safe to Use?

Teleparty is a web browser extension that allows you to watch Netflix with your friends live through a link provided. 

Let’s get into what makes this platform safe to stream with below.

The host shares the link with whomever they like and they can watch the same show or movie at the same time. This allows everyone in the party to watch at the same exact second. 

A host can also share the link with over one thousand people or just one other person. 

A unique web link is provided for the host to share with many people. The link is different for every party that you decide to start as host.

The Teleparty host has to send the link in order for you to join and it is not reusable.
