I live in the UK. I used to be able to access UK websites like BBC iPlayer but now I cannot. Why? What can I do to access them.
First, I’m an Avast user and not an Avast Team member. Up until yesterday I had never used a VPN (and not SecureLine VPN). After less than a few hours I experienced problems Google complaining about unusual behaviour when using YouTube. This was a free VPN with limited connections, in limited countries
The BBC and a number of other such content providers actively block VPN services (the BBC because you need to be in the UK, license payer, etc.). With a VPN they can’t check and essentially block.
You could try and ensure that you use Split Tunnelling in the Avast Securline VPN and see if that works.
