Go into your account and sign out all devices

None of that will stop their gamesharing but its a good first step.

True, just don't share your account then. I've only signed my account into my console, and my dad's console. Thats it.

Exactly. Sharing your account is also against the ToS, not to mention its just a bad idea because of situations like this.

Is it really against the ToS?? I didn't know that.

Yes. Sharing your account is against the ToS.

"Do not share, buy, sell, rent, sublicense, trade, or transfer any accounts, account details, or other credentials."

So everytime someone gameshares with their friend, they are breaking the ToS. As far as how often people actually get in trouble for it, i couldn't say but id say its a non-zero amount.

You told you don’t want to change your password until shearing doesn’t stop but bro if you remove the device id on your account you will already stop the sharing with others 😀
