Netflix steps up proxy blocking

[Technoglitch]

While Netflix has been slowly blocking VPNs and DNS workarounds over the past couple of months -- Australia was first to feel the pinch -- this weekend has seen a slew of complaints from around Europe. Users in Spain, Germany, the Czech Republic and the UK have all reported being blocked. Anecdotally, Engadget writers have seen access revoked for using a VPN that doesn't actually "change" locations -- a UK-based VPN while in the UK, for example.

It seems that Netflix don't want genuine users and provoking registered user to use alternative mode I.e downloads.

Due to region specific titles are restricted.

Yes we knew that but they are now unnecessarily trying to bully registered users by blocking their efforts to watch them. Viewers anyhow gonna watch things. If they start doing all these things users have to turned out to downloads and once they hot habit of it, their subscription too will suffer.

They should allow the usage of unblocked.

Let their be ban officially but decoding proxy and VPN is too much.

Since netflix has banned the proxy VPNs, i found this one claiming to bypass the netflix blocking and costs the same as other proxy VPNs.. It is upto user's discretion to try Smart DNS and neither me nor the forum is responsible if it doesnt work.
