What does 'rolling off' mean in this news report?
I was watching a news report on NBC through Youtube (https://youtu.be/-PyYNuMWVtU) and the newscaster says, "Walk us through what changes functionally if, let's say, you are still rolling off your ex, you know, your ex's account if they're whatever logged in." (2:12) From this sentence, I am not sure what 'rolling off your ex' means. Would anyone be able to help me understand this?

- The original password has to be changed by the ex, who now owns the account.

Your ex is the husband or wife you divorced, in other words, a former husband (an ex-husband) or a former wife (an ex-wife). Think of 'ex' as meaning 'former'.
