Well those work by resolving some domains (like netflix.com) to their own tunnel endpoints, which then tunnel to a different country. They can then just block the endpoints' IPs. It's actually not that hard to set up, I did it a couple of years ago to tunnel youtube (which is pretty crippled for music in Germany) and some other services not available outside of the US to a server in the US. The DNS server was in Germany to keep latency low.

So presumably Netflix knows which are the Getflix and other service tunnel endpoints. I wonder if it will escalate with Getflix and other providers attempting to bypass such blocks.
