Ever attempted to see something online or access a web site and received a "sorry not accessible your state" type message. It can be hugely frustrating and happens on a regular basis to many people. There are literally 1000s of sites which block access based on your place, unfortunately they're among the largest and finest about the internet. Take the US, there's lots of excellent media sites like Hulu, Pandora, HBO, NBC and Netflix to name but a few. Each of these are inaccessible should you chance to connect from outside the US, although you may get routed to an inferior model of Netflix. The websites all look up your IP address when you work out your precise location and connect before enabling access. It is frustrating particularly for people living or travelling abroad - unexpectedly you only can't access your favourite sites. Fortunately there is a solution that is simple, simply conceal your actual IP address. This is a fast video which demonstrates the way to use this approach - it uses the best US VPN however there are plenty of others available.
