Operation: Evict the Stream Squatters! How to Kick People Out of Your Hulu Account (Without Ruining Movie Night)
Let's face it, sharing your Hulu account is like lending your favorite yoga pants: comfy and convenient, but there's always a lingering worry of who, exactly, has been wearing them. We've all been there. Maybe your roommate used your login for "just one episode" of that gripping documentary about competitive snail racing (don't judge), and next thing you know, you're getting bombarded with recommendations for "Shows Your Ex Will Definitely Binge-Watch After You Break Up." Or perhaps a distant cousin sweet-talked their way into access, promising eternal gratitude that mysteriously never arrives (along with their contribution to the monthly bill).
Whatever the scenario, it's time to reclaim your digital dominion! But fear not, fellow streamer, for this guide will show you how to banish the freeloaders without resorting to password-scrambled ransom notes or staged internet outages (though those are tempting options).

The Eject Button: Where to Find It (and Maybe Why You Haven't Seen It)
Here's the thing: Hulu operates on a system of trust. They envision a world where friends and family gather around the virtual campfire, sharing heartwarming episodes of Golden Girls reruns. But this is the real world, people! Luckily, Hulu also offers a way to wrangle back control. Here's how to find the eviction tools:
- Head to Hulu.com and log in to your account.
- Hover over your account name in the top right corner. A dropdown menu will appear.
- Click on "Account." This will take you to your account settings.
- Now, here's where things get a little tricky. Depending on the path you choose, you can either:
- Target a specific device: Look for a section called "Manage Devices" or "Your Devices." This will show you a list of all the gadgets currently logged in to your account. Spot your freeloading friend's tablet? Click the handy "Remove" button next to the offending device. Problem solved (with minimal collateral damage).
- Boot everyone out at once: Feeling like a digital Marie Kondo? Look for a section titled "Log Out of All Devices" or "Protect Your Account." With a single click, you can sever the connection with every device currently leeching off your subscription. This is the nuclear option, but sometimes a fresh start is just what the doctor ordered (or in this case, the streamer demanded).
Important Note: After the eviction, consider changing your password. This adds an extra layer of security and discourages any sneaky re-entry attempts.
QuickTip: Pause at transitions — they signal new ideas.
But Wait! There's More! How to Make Sure They Stay Out
Pro Tip 1: Enable two-factor authentication. This adds an extra step to the login process, usually a code sent to your phone. It's like having a fancy digital bouncer who checks IDs.
Pro Tip 2: Create separate profiles. Hulu allows you to create multiple profiles, so everyone gets their own watchlist and recommendations. This way, your guilty pleasure reality show addiction won't influence your grandma's viewing habits (unless, of course, you want it to. We won't judge).
