So, a Brazilian citizen living in the US would pay the Netflix account using his Brazilian Credit card. And that would block him into Netflix Brazil content? The origin of the CC is the issue? What about 'generic' CC you can buy a

My question is: how can they tell (and block) if a user is streaming through VPN? Do they systematically block all major VPN provider domains? Anyone know how this is done?

I still don't get how HN works, I'm pretty sure if I would have written that purely vitriolic comment I would have been downvoted to oblivion. Genuinely curious about it ... obviously this interrogation of mine WILL be downvoted.

I wonder how this relates to the 'ghost' towns being built over there? Could this be a consequence of the slowing rate of construction of these huge cities/housing projects (no one lives in practically)? That artificial growt

OUYA + Older (non-smart) Flatscreen = Win! I can hack the OUYA at will and watch shows, movies and stream music. All the while the TV does what it does best : show me a pretty, clear picture.
