> Accessing Netflix content from other countries.

Are there any VPN services that actually do this? AFAIK all of them get blocked (i.e. they are known IPs). I've even tried to spin up a Digital Ocean server to route my traffic and Netflix blocked it.

Yes! However it gets a bit complex, as they're using dns based geofencing so there's some extra steps.

Can you expand? Which VPN allows you to get Netflix to another geolocation.

ExpressVPN works for me. Can get netflix US in the UK and vice versa. Also Disney+, BBC and Amazon Prime. Works for all the streaming services I've tried tbh.
