So you need one Netflix account per region? (to avoid that particular method that Neflix is using)

- statsknowitall 10y agoNo, you can watch the content of whatever region you currently inhabit. Just like there is a different set of shows on TV while you are on vacation in Spain, there is Spanish netflix on the internet (dumb old media contracts). If you use technical means to pretend to inhabit another region, they will try to stop you as the article describes.
- Spivak 10y agoIf you're planning on technically circumventing region locks then you, apparently, need an account with a valid billing address in that region to avoid this form of detection. If I were actually meaningfully affected by this change I would just drop their service and get my content from my peers. It's honestly just not worth the effort.
