Tech experts have good news about Netflix’s plan to stop everyone unblocking the best TV shows

When Netflix announced that the party was over on using virtual private networks (VPNs) to dodge regional content restrictions, we were a little bit sad.

So many people use them to binge watch great Netflix shows from different countries which are not locally available. The use of 'unblockers' to open up content is particularly common in the UK and other smaller markets which lag behind the US in terms of the number of quality TV shows and movies available. The company claims it is working towards a day where all content is globally available - but Netflix bigwig David Fullagar wrote in a blog post that soon people would only be able to watch titles in their territory. 'Some members use proxies or “unblockers” to access titles available outside their territory,' he wrote. 'To address this, we employ the same or similar measures other firms do. This technology continues to evolve and we are evolving with it. 'That means in coming weeks, those using proxies and unblockers will only be able to access the service in the country where they currently are.' But tech experts believe that a complete crack down on subscribers using proxies and VPNs by the online entertainments giant would be impossible. One such proxy service TorGuard said its users wouldn't be affected by any attempts at a crackdown. 'For those of you who rely on TorGuard VPN service to unblock Netflix content unrestricted, you don’t have to worry,' they explained. 'Netflix will be pushing this plan forward soon, and when that happens, TorGuard will immediately deploy new server IP addresses so users can still bypass blocks.'
