Yup! I do believe my street cable is shared by up to 25 households! In my street each pair or households is connected to a common CATV connector under the pavement.

Even if, unusually, premises are are sharing the cable on the premises side of the street connection, normal user id and protocols completely separate the two modems and TV boxes as discrete end points.

Somebody is tilting at windmills here. Don Quixote was regarded as somewhat mad. In the modern world he would probably be regarded as being somewhere on the autism spectrum.
