There's nothing we love more than a good Netflix binge, and we're pretty sure you all know how to solve the problem of a film or TV series being unavailable in your own country to watch.
However, it looks like this era will be coming to an end, with the subscription service announcing that users will no longer be able to use proxies or 'unblocking' servers that grant access to content that isn't locally available. Users will no longer be able to fool Netflix into thinking they are in another territory just to get access to the films and tv shows available.
In a
blog post on their website, David Fullagar, Vice President of Content Delivery Architecture explained: "If all of our content were globally available, there wouldn't be a reason for members to use proxies or 'unblockers' to fool our systems into thinking they're in a different country than they're actually in.'
The service, with over 70 million subscribers, hopes to make more content globally available, which has been unable to happen as of yet due to licencing restrictions.
'We look forward to offering all of our content everywhere and to consumers being able to enjoy all of Netflix without using a proxy. That’s the goal we will keep pushing towards.'
In the meantime, we'll all just have to sit tight and hope it happens quickly for the sake of our binge-watching needs.
