On its face, Proton VPN’s app for Apple TV seems to add another privacy layer to your life. But there’s a whole other, complicated, international use case.

It's too much trouble to try and work around the VPN blocking that most streaming services do. It's so much easier to just torrent whatever you want to watch.

I'm glad a lot of the major vpns have stopped advertising them with "watch Netflix from any country, anywhere!" Because you could only do that for a short time before they started blocking all VPN IPs, and it was just blatant false advertising.
