Be aware that a lot of streaming services block traffic that doesn't originate from residential IPs, AKA Digital Ocean, AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, Linode etc. Apparently BBC even uses a whitelist instead of a blacklist. ISPs give them the list of ip addresses they use for individual customers, and those are the only ones permitted. No VPS will help you in this case, trust me, I've tried.

If the ispes use dymanic ip assignments they have given an ip range to the bbc. Try a few proxies in the uk you might find a machine on the range.

Residential proxies exist.

True. And I bet that most all of them either use botnet slaves, or people running Hola, Oxylabs apps, and other stuff like them.

Those are also botnet slaves.
