Good luck. If you still have a valid payment option in the original country, you can stay subscribed. But if you move to europe, and you want a south-american netflix account, have fun trying to get it paid. Also, subtitles and audio tracks

Yes. They simply call city/state/country X, and tell them: Yo, we are going to build a datacenter farm here for AWS. You are not going to tax us, provide half the funds, and we will try to source the workforce in your region mkay?
