I use a third party VPN without any issues (USA)
Comment on Does anyone use a VPN to subvert the Netflix household device fencing?

This never worked for me. It would always detect my VPN and alarm out. Even when I was logged in from my own country. If it was on, I was locked out.

I think they mean hosting their own VPN on their home network, not using any third party provider.

It still wouldn’t work. If the system is set up to deny service when a VPN is detected, then it doesn’t matter where you’re connected, or if you’re hosting or not.

How would it know you’re using a VPN?

if you use the Netflix application chances are they’ll detect the virtual network on your system and if it’s in use, most people don’t seem to realize that applications have direct access to your hardware unless it’s containerized or virtualized.
