But how is it possible that a friend of yours living in another part of the world can watch it on the same platform? Welcome to the concept of geo-blocking.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The USP of any streaming platform is the content it holds. And for every region of the world, they reserve content rights. Hence it can be said that geo-blocking is a crucial asset used by platforms, internet providers, and the government to create a parameter of what can be accessed in a certain region.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now to understand how geo-blocking is implemented and why the concept of it exists, you\u2019ll have to read this article. It also answers the question that most of you might have, i.e., how to bypass geo-blocking.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s begin!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">What is Geo-Blocking?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Geo-blocking is the process that helps website owners segregate their content and services based on the user&#8217;s region. It mainly keeps an internet user away from three issues &#8211;\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Accessing the content from anywhere else in the world.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ability to identify a particular service outside its serviceable area.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Understanding of pricing for the same goods across the globe.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If we look at this concept from the perspective of a service provider or a platform, it is a great way to leverage regional differences. For instance, a product on Amazon might appear expensive in the US, while the same product may be cheap in a country where it is being mass manufactured.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The same goes for content as well. Rights for shows and movies are expensive in a particular region (mostly where they are created) and cheaper in countries where people aren\u2019t aware of it. Streaming partners buy the content to expand their library and take the rights for other countries.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But that means a user who wants to watch something or access a service on priority has to pay more than someone who is not aware of it properly. This is the reason why a user must be concerned about geographical restrictions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Read Also: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.systweak.com\/blogs\/free-vs-paid-vpn\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Free Vs Paid VPN \u2013 Is the Risk Worth the Price?\u00a0<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">How Does Geo-Blocking Work? Why does it Exist?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now that you know the concept, let us take a deeper dive into how it works.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The technology behind geo-blocking, however, is becoming more and more obsolete. The key player here is your IP address. When you visit their website, companies and service providers can access your IP address. Your IP address is the online home address that lets an individual know much about you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once a website understands where you reside, you are shown a feed specifically curated for your country or region.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gambling and fantasy sports applications are the best examples of this concept. You can easily access thousands of such apps from the Play Store as long as these are legal in your country. If you want to use these applications in your country where they are not legal, you might not be able to use them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At the end of the day, it is all about licensing what you do online. And to license or make anything profitable, you need to find a clientele. Geo-blocking helps a business do exactly that. The key factor to pay attention to here is that your IP address plays a crucial role in helping brands and services curate the content you have access to.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">How to Bypass Geo-Blocking?<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So far, what we have understood about geo-blocking is that &#8211;\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is a process that helps businesses, service providers, and jurisdictions to manage what type of information, data, and content is available for users based on their region.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The idea is to leverage content demand and unavailability based on the user&#8217;s location.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It allows a service provider to segregate pricing and services as required.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It restricts a user from accessing a completely open internet as many things become out of limits when geographically restricted.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The entire concept of geo-blocking strongly depends on the IP-identifying process, as every website you visit identifies your IP to limit your experience accordingly.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Knowing all of it, we know that the main source of geographical information about a user is the IP address. Hence, you need to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.systweak.com\/blogs\/change-ip-address-on-pc-with-or-without-vpn\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">change your IP address<\/a> or hide it to bypass the same.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are 2 Ways you Can Bypass Geo-Blocking &#8211;\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\">1. Use a VPN<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A virtual private network has been around for a while now. The concept is an old one. However, it has surely gained much popularity over the past few years. That is because more and more people now understand exactly how services and websites are using geographical restrictions to their benefit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since changing or spoofing your IP address can help you appear from a different part of the world, using a VPN is an ideal solution. You can easily change your IP and use a different server to unlock access to the internet from a different country.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We recommend using Systweak VPN. The tool is easy to use, and the best part is its many features.
