Geo restriction is the process of blocking websites from the use of the general public in definitive terrestrial/geographical locations. This is done for a number of reasons, one being due to some international laws as some countries claim contents from some websites are against their beliefs also schools block websites to ensure that students remain focused and employers also do to ensure that employees focus on the day’s task as well as preserve network bandwidth. There are a handful of reasons for geo-blocking, and it seems to be annoying for most internet users as they are controlled as to what contents they can open. Geo-restriction is works by filtering IP addresses, geo-restriction like many has a gray area however as it can be bypassed to grant users unlimited access to everything around the world. Here are a few methods to on how to take advantage of these gray areas.
A virtual Private network (VPN): this is by miles the safest and best method to unblock these restricted websites and securely as well. VPN will unblock whatever website you choses to unblock as long as to conceal your location to look as though you’re in a different country. How a VPN works; the user downloads a VPN provider of his choice and creates an account with the chosen provider and selects a country, VPN providers comes with many servers around the world for users to choose from. Once the connection is setup on the device the user can now access every blocked website. According to the Reviewster VPN roundup (http://www.windows10newsinfo.com/smf/index.php/topic,31593.0.html) there are a number of trusted VPN service providers that include expressVPN (http://www.expressvpn.com/), HideMyAss (http://www.hidemyass.com/), ZenMate (http://zenmate.com/).
A smart DNS proxy: this is also an easy way to by bypass geo-restrictions and location errors. The restricted websites use your device’s IP address to know that you’re in a geo-restricted zone and thus, lock you out from their services. If you are looking to just get past a website and skip all the processes involved in setting up a VPN, all you need is SmartDNS proxy to hide your IP address such that the restricted website would view you from a country that is not restricted. A SmartDNS is relatively faster than a VPN on the download side but won’t guarantee the security that VPNs gives. Useful geo-unblocking services include Streamjack.tv (http://streamjack.tv/) and Getflix.com (http://getflix.com/)
Hola Browser plugin: this is also another easy way to bypass geo-restrictions. The hola plugin is a simple browser add-on that we install to our conventional web browser application on our computers. Once the hola plugin (http://hola.org/) is search and downloaded from the hola.org website. It exists for windows as well as for Mac OS X. Once the user installs the add-on and changes location to the country he/she want to access their contents, the website from that moment on would view the user from their own location thereby allowing access to the website.
