re checking request IP address block: is this what NetFlix does, they don’t work through VPNs, even when I set VPN server to USA ___location. I always turn off my VPN before trying to watch Netflix.



Netflix seems to work through a VPN for me. I sometimes use it when content is geo-restricted.


Thanks, I will experiment with leaving my VPN on.


I use PIA vpn. netflix blocks that for every region/connection pair i've tried. i just leave it turned off and switch to torrent. netflix europe offerings are generally subpar.


It blocks mine, as well.
