Netflix Starts Enforcing Geographic Restrictions
- The Verge, Friday, January 22, 2016 3:20 PM
Netflix is now blocking some Australians who use virtual private networks to evade the company's geographic restrictions, The Verge reports. The Australian VPN uFlix says Netflix is sending the following message to users: "You seem to be using an unblocker or proxy. Please turn off any of these services and try again."
uFlix says it is "working on a solution" to Netflix's move. Another VPN, TorGuard, says it already has developed a way to fight Netflix's plans.
