Then you simply open Netflix on the same device and it will think you're in that location and display all its content accordingly. Netflix, you might want to connect to a server in Washington, or California for example – whichever is closest to you, in most cases, can be faster. Download the app, install and connect to a server location of your choice. The first step to Netflix viewing freedom is to sign up for your NordVPN account. With NordVPN constantly adding new servers, it's basically an endless game of whack-a-mole for Netflix to try and block them all. So Netflix will try to block VPN use but, of course, if your VPN is good enough then Netflix won't know you're using it, let alone know who you are or anything about you. We may terminate or restrict your use of our service if you violate these Terms of Use or are engaged in illegal or fraudulent use of the service." "You also agree not to circumvent, remove, alter, deactivate, degrade or thwart any of the content protections in the Netflix service use any robot, spider, scraper, or other automated means to access the Netflix service. How does this apply to Netflix which blocks VPN usage? The streaming giant says VPN use is against its terms and conditions: However, even in most of these countries, the blocking doesn't mean they're actually illegal, or at the very least there are very few examples of legal action being taken anywhere.

VPN use is legal in most countries across the world but there are a few places where VPNs are actively blocked, like in China, Iran, Turkey, and Russia. These aren't as much of an issue with NordVPN meaning you should be able to get good speeds with minimal buffering from Netflix.

That's not to mention DDoS attacks which could totally cripple your connection.

In some instances, there can be issues with bandwidth throttling, which slows down your connection and ultimately means lower quality Netflix streaming. That means not only local access wherever you end up traveling but also fast speeds as you can be physically closer to a server. One of the very helpful features of NordVPN specifically is its number of servers which, at last count, was over 5,500 dotted across 60 countries. So no matter what Netflix library you're trying to access, you can use NordVPN. The point is that not just one or two NordVPN servers get you in on Netflix content from elsewhere, but that they pretty much all do. In our testing, NordVPN was able to unblock geo-restricted Netflix content from the likes of the U.S., Canada, the UK, Germany, Japan, Australia, India, and plenty more worldwide. This not only means you can access your favorite shows while abroad, which would otherwise be geo-restricted, but you also have access to other countries' local libraries.
