- Matt3o12_ 11y agoEuropeans normally don't use a VPN to watch blocked YouTube videos. They use a browser plug in that uses a proxy for the blocked videos (and only the blocked ones). Hulu (or netflix to be precise) is one of the reasons I use a VPN but again not many people do that. I can only observe that people who frequently have contact with Americans are more likely to want to watch their shows in English and thus use a VPN. Most people I know just stream series that don't pay the they want to watch, which is not illegal in Germany and Austria[1]. [1] although cooperations try to sue people for streaming from sites that don't pay the IP owner, they don't have a lot of success since the video is not saved to disk nor is it redistributed. Only distribution of illegal in Germany and Austria
