How does this system differentiate between what you're calling "freeloading" and family members traveling, especially if they aren't all traveling together? e.g. Mom is on a business trip to Ottawa; Dad is on a different business trip to Calgary; older child is at university in Vancouver; and younger child is at home. If I had paid for 4 simultaneous screens, I would want that scenario to work without issues.
If you persistently access from outside your home for more than 7 days you will need to enter a code sent to the account holders email. You can even request a code before you travel if you know you will be more than 7 days away.
If you persistently access for more than 30 days your device will be blocked until you can convince Netflix to unblock it.
So Mom, Dad, and the youngster is fine.
The older child never had any rights to access your account from his University. You never paid for that right.
