While this looks like sorcery, it really isn’t. Instead, a VPN can make can make your computer, smartphone or tablet appear to be in a different country by changing your device’s IP address. This allows you to unblock geo-blocked streams and, as an extra bonus, running a VPN can also improve your internet security and privacy. That’s a win all round.
