Why Does Netflix Ban VPNs? In short, Netflix bans VPN connections because they don't have the rights to air certain content in many countries. So when a subscriber uses a VPN to watch a show that isn't typically available in their region, Netflix is in violation of their copyright agreement.
Netflix US dwarfs Netflix Australia in terms of content and quality TV. Australian Netflix library has fewer TV shows and movies than the American Netflix library. There is a total of 4493 titles in AU Netflix while US Netflix has a total of 5097 titles.
But there is a way to access
Netflix streams for
other countries,
without signing up for
VPN.
Here's How
- First, you need to sign up Netflix. Next, you need to have either an Android or iOS device to access Netflix.
- Next, you need to download a free VPN service.
- Fire up that free VPN.
- Fire up Netflix.
- And that's it.
Netflix is available for streaming over the internet in over 190 countries around the world! When you're traveling, relocating in your current country, or relocating to a new country, there are a few things to keep in mind.
Netflix provides a different service based upon where you're currently located. So if you access Netflix in the US you get American Netflix, while if you log on to Netflix from the UK you get the British edition. If you ever visit the US you can watch US Netflix using your UK account.
Netflix is not yet available in China, Crimea, North Korea, or Syria.
Currently, if you have a UK Netflix subscription and travel to Spain, you can only access the Spanish version. New portability rules set to kick in on Sunday will let viewers see the same range of films and TV shows they would get at home, but this will change on March 29 2019.
Official policy: Not allowed to share. If you want to have multiple people use one Netflix login, you should buy their premium plan, which allows you to watch from four devices at the same time.
You've probably gathered this from experience, but Netflix doesn't care about account sharing. You can uninhibitedly share your Netflix login info with people who live across the country or even people who live in another continent. We've never heard of Netflix terminating an account because it was being shared.
In April 2018, Europe implemented a new regulation on cross-border portability of online services. This means that if you registered to Netflix in the UK, you'll still be able to access the UK library. However, you won't be able to access the local library in the location you're in.
Hulu is not available in Europe for several reasons. That's why Hulu invests its money exclusively in the US market. To make Hulu work in Europe in 2019, you need to make Hulu think that you are in the US, regardless of where you are. We'll go through the process of that below.
If that was not enough bad news for Harry Potter fans in the U.S., here's some more: Not only are the Harry Potter movies not on Netflix, but they are not available to stream at all in the U.S. currently. Currently, the Harry Potter movies are only streaming on Netflix in the following countries (per uNoGS):
Watch Netflix on your smartphone, tablet, Smart TV, laptop, or streaming device, all for one fixed monthly fee. Plans range from EUR7.99 to EUR15.99 a month. No extra costs, no contracts.
Well, you'll be glad to know that all the Harry Potter movies are coming to Netflix. Unfortunately, they won't appear in Netflix libraries across the world and can only be viewed in France, Belgium, Spain, Australia, and New Zealand (some of the movies are available on Netflix Canada too).
As well as banning IP addresses, Netflix also detects VPNs by looking at whether the location of your IP address and your DNS server matches. If you use your web browser to watch Netflix and you have a VPN installed, then the VPN provider will be able to route your traffic via a DNS server that they have provided.

Futurama was a staple of the Netflix library up until last year after it was removed as well as other animated shows from Fox. His new show Disenchantment came to Netflix in August 2018.
