Netflix Denies There Was a Policy Change With VPNs

Posted by samzenpus on from the wasn't-us dept.

Dangerous_Minds writes "The other day, Slashdot linked to a TorrentFreak story saying that Netflix was cracking down on VPN users. But PCMag has a story that quotes a Netflix spokesperson saying that there was no change in their policy on VPNs. Freezenet also did some digging around and found very few reports saying there were VPN access issues and even more reports from users say that their VPN solution is working for the time being."

    Netflix spokesperson saying that there was no change in their policy on VPNs.

    Might very well be true, but that statement says nothing about the frequency of enforcement; which might have changed.

    Same here. Another thing to note is that the $5 I'm willing to pay unblock-us every month could go to Hollywood, but it turns out they don't want my money.
