How would that even be possible?

I imagine they'll be about as successful in achieving this as the government are in stopping us accessing torrent sites.
Block the IP ranges used by VPN providers.
I'll be disappointed if there is a crackdown as the UK selection is pretty poor.
Anyone else having issues with using US Netflix (from outside the US) on Xbox One? Everytime I update the DNS settings, I log in to Netflix, it says "Cannot sync data" and punts me back to the threadbare UK Netflix. Grim.
Netflix are cracking down on people accessing regions they shouldn't. Cnuts.
I'm using Unblock-US to watch US Netflix on PS4 and I dread getting some error message every time I use it now. You think UK Netflix is bad? Try Irish Netflix.
Unblock-Us is still working fine for me.
Irish and uk Netflix is identical as far as I am aware
And it's really not so bad at all
Unlocator is still doing fine, they've already circumvented the latest Netflix US block.
So don't use paypal to pay.
Crisis averted.
Crisis averted.
Ive not logged into Netflix for months. Not since loading Kodi onto my Firestick
Won't services affected by this use bitcoin, I don't understand it all though to be all honest.
I use smartflix to access stuff on Netflix uk. Not been a problem for me with that site.
I had it catch me on Hola but just refreshed Hola and it started working again.
Bastards!!
Or, not so much, I pressed OK and it carried on working.
Same thing happened me last night. Carried on working for me too.
But the end is nigh....

Turns out my unblock provider is wise to the situation and have supplied me with alternative (unpublished publicly) DNS settings to use.
I need to rewatch Parks and Rec again just for the Jean-Ralphio bits.
I predicted this would happen. Are you using a free service or a paid service?
Yep, seemed logical. Paid.
Aaaaaand blocked again.
Looks like Netflix may have won.
Unblock-Us have stripped all mention of Netflix from their site.
Think I'll be cancelling.

if that's the case I'll be cancelling both of them and buying a bigger usb stick or hard drive.
Well shit.
Mine still works with Hola, every now and again it figures it out but you just refresh the extension and it starts working again. For how long I dont know though.
Netflix don't want to do it, sadly they're being pressured by the studios.
Its actually bordering on a joke, I have access to Amazon Prime, Sky Go, and Netflix and still have to stream/torrent stuff.
The thing is, moves like this will just lead to more piracy.
I'll probably keep Netflix just because it's cheap enough to not be overly arsed and its worth it for the 4K content, but I'll be watching more stuff illegally now that I can't access US content.
Yeah I know, and Netflix know, which is why they're trying to push for global rights rather than having to sort rights in different territories. Its just in the interim, sadly, they are beholden to the rights holders that are insisting they crack down on it.
Hola has stopped working. Is there an alternative that I can use to access US, Canada etc netflix?
Smartflix.
Any that are free?
But thanks all the same @Krovv!
Hadn't realised they'd started charging.Any that are free?
It's cheaper than most VPN services though. $4/mo isn't really that much tbf.I still don't get the hype about Netflix.
Other than the top few rows in a genre, it mostly seems to be crap. Struggle to find anything I want to watch on there.

The person I don't know whose account I was using seems to have stopped paying for it
I don't get enough out of it to justify the cost per month but it's handy every now and then, so I need to find someone that wants to share the cost now. 4k still isn't worth it at all, but HD probably is (if halved).

It's nearly £100 a year for HD, £70 for standard. I don't use it that much that it's worth that but it's nice to have the option to chuck a documentary on or something every couple of months, although I still struggle with finding anything worth watching which makes it even less enticing to pay that amount for.
I think the reason it's so popular is because it's very easily accessible. It is available on practically every platform and even smart TV's now.
There are better options in my opinion, Just may not be as easy to access at a push of a button which alot of lazy people would just rather do.
Is the proxy block thing still happening? I used to be on Netflix ALL the time when I had access to other regions... I only go to it now for tv shows.
