The same can be said of Kodi, who may also stop you from using certain add-ons in your country. Streaming services such as Netflix and Hulu tend to block some of their media depending on the region you’re accessing them from. Being able to access geo-blocked content from any part of the world is the main selling point of a VPN for most people. Pairing your Nvidia streaming device with a VPN provides two major benefits: freedom and privacy. Setting up a VPN for your Nvidia device seems like a reasonable choice, especially if you value privacy alongside the benefit of worldwide content access, but is it difficult to install it onto your Nvidia TV? Spoiler alert: not at all.
Luckily, there is a workaround for just this problem to get around these content blocks.
That last one is especially painful for Nvidia TV owners, since they purchased the system in hopes of a next level gaming and streaming experience. Despite living in an age of mass communication, pesky region blocks still exist, preventing access to games, movies, series and some of our favorite apps. Nothing shoves the popcorn out of your hands than seeing a copyright notification appearing on your freshly bought Nvidia Shield TV, ruining your long-awaited marathon of Game of Thrones.
