Boost your Netflix with a VPN

Boost your Netflix with a VPN

South African Netflix users are genuinely retained by the local bouquet offer. Compared to our counterparts in the northern hemisphere, there are thousands of shows and movies that we don't have access to and we can't help but feel left out. While our deal is fast on Netflix original productions, when it comes to international classics like The Office and the like, we didn't get a chance to binge-watch. Netflix isn't the only culprit on our list of content. The streaming giant is grappling with government plans to impose the law on a local content quota, as well as competition rights from other services. Some Netflix Originals and other international TV shows are subject to exclusive partnership agreements, making them available only in certain regions of the world. And yet we the people suffer the most. If you've had enough of Netflix's current offering, this is where a reliable Virtual Private Network (VPN) comes in handy. Using a VPN will allow people to access a Netflix library from another country.

How does it work

VPNs essentially mask a user's IP address. It will route network traffic through a server that can be used in various locations around the world. You should choose a VPN that will give you access to other Netflix libraries; otherwise, you will have wasted your time and have no hope. Once you've chosen a VPN, you'll be able to access a Netflix library from the country of your choice. The UK has the largest library of shows and movies, which may be a good place to start.

Quality VPN

There are a number of reputable VPNs to choose from and some fake ones too. Surfshark is a popular option and is currently running a special offer for €2.21 per month. Click here for the best VPN services for 2021
