Is it easy to bypass geo-blocked content without a VPN?
Asked 2 years ago
I recently moved to China for work purposes, and I am having a difficult time assimilating the culture. I get homesick sometimes, and I often wish I could create an environment that is similar to home here. I miss watching my favorite shows, but there is internet censorship on this side, and I want to know if there is a way to bypass restrictions on my favorite streaming sites without using a VPN service.

Yes, the easiest way to bypass geo-blocked content is to use a VPN. China is known to restrict a lot of online content, and due to geo-blocking, you won't be able to see this content at all - unless you use a VPN, or you're physically out of the country. In your particular case (regarding streaming sites), a VPN will let you bypass them, as long as the streaming sites haven't explicitly banned the usage of VPNs on their platforms.
