I live in Denmark and I have used the Netflix on both the iPhone and iPad with great success. I have written a tutorial on the subject here: http://thomasfals.com/how-to-use-netflix-on-the-ipad-from-outside-the-us/

Can only confirm what Patti is saying. Hotspot Shield is not working with Netflix now.

Anyone who has another solution for Mac-users abroad wanting to watch netflix Instant, I\’m all ears.

@patti,

I remembered I watched Hulu after the date of your comment, and using hotshield. I don\\\’t think Hulu and other sites would prohibit this method because:

A-It is not practical , there are a lot of \\"anonymous\\" IPs being used , it is simply a person in the US or company grant access to their IP, they can\\\’t ban every IP.

B-They have no interest in doing so, the only reason Hulu and other streaming sites restrict contents based on location, is for licensing purpose, because license holders in other countries will sue them if they don\\\’t get proper license from international publishers. but I don\\\’t think they can make a case, just because hulu don\\\’t ban every ip that maybe used by international visitor.

all this is my opinion of course, and should not be considered a legal advice.

Hulu and many other sights have learned not to allow for anonymous IPs. Hot Spot Shield no longer works.

In order to see videos on official US sites from abroad you’ll need to use a proxy service.

Easiest way to do it is to google “anonymous proxy” for list of proxy IP addresses.

Choose any address then go to you browser settings ( Something like “Tools>Internet options>Connections>Lan Settings..>and check “Enable proxy” and enter the prioxy ip address you got earlier.

That’s it
