While Netflix is certainly doing a better job at identifying traffic patterns with obfuscated origins than most, the truth is, there’s not much it can do to truly prevent its users from location spoofing. Given how there’s no surefire way of telling if and when it could start doing so, proceed at your own risk (or skip to the end for some peace of mind from this disclaimer). Granted, no one has (yet) been banned for using a proxy or a virtual private network to circumvent the streaming platform’s content restrictions as of early 2020, but Netflix would be fully within its rights to start sanctioning such accounts. Though there are still ways to fool Netflix into thinking you’re in a different country than you actually are, always be aware that in doing so, you’re acting in direct violation of its terms of service. Much like any other media company on the planet, Netflix is bound by seemingly countless licensing agreements which tend to come with various geographical restrictions the company’s legally obligated to enforce. If you’re having issues with Netflix not working with VPN services, we’re afraid that’s by design.
