Access Netflix Outside The USA Quick and Easy

In the past there were plenty of ways to access Netflix outside the USA, but now there is only one. This is a secure, fast, and reliable way to get access to Netflix's movie database from anywhere in the world.

Yes, you can access Netflix outside The USA, but it may not be in a way that you have though of before. Many people, when they try to get access to the site outside the US, they turn to Hotspot shield or some technical ways to change their IP address. This can be interesting, and if you're bored, you can try to figure out how to get these methods to work. However, if you want access, and you want it now, then you need to get a VPN, because it's the fastest and easiest way to access Netflix outside The USA.

A VPN is a tool to surf the Internet anonymously. Originally designed for businesses, so that employees could sign in to servers back at the office and log information regarding the company without worry about the data being intercepted, VPN's are now a common way not only to hide your IP address, but also to stay anonymous on the Internet.

An IP address is like a tag for your computer, telling anyone and everyone where you are, where you've been, and lots of other data regarding your Internet surfing habits. Maybe you're not doing anything strange or embarrassing on the Internet anyway, but some just prefer the idea of being anonymous. Your ISP doesn't need to know how many times you've checked your mail today, or that you've been having diarrhea.

So how does this allow you to watch Netflix outside The America? Well, it's all about the IP address. You see, Netflix is able to deny you access because they can see your IP address, i.e., where your computer is located. When you sign in to the VPN server, your real IP address becomes secret, so that not even your Internet service provider knows where your are. By signing into the VPN server, you are then assigned a virtual IP address for the period of time you're signed in. When you sign out, you regain your original IP address, and no one knows about what sites you surfed while you were signed into the VPN. It is possible for the VPN service to keep tract of this information, but most of the time VPN services won't do that because anonymous surfers prefer it this way.

So if the VPN server is in American, you get a USA IP address, and Netflix sees this. The VPN server in the USA is key to accessing Netflix outside The USA. They see this American IP address, and you then can watch movies on the site! Cool and quick. Connecting to the VPN requires no hardware and only takes a minute or less of your time. At the time of the writing of this article, proxies are blocked by Netflix, so VPN's are the only way to access Netflix outside The USA.
