    If you're out of country, then Netflix might be an issue:

    - access on your account in a different country (VPN can fix this unless Netflix objects to that specific VPN provider).

    - they might think you were password sharing and bill you.

    Last year I used my UK Netflix account in France on a French IP with no
    issues.

    It says in the Netflix T and C's you can do this, but for no more than
    30 consecutive days and assuming most of you use is in your country of
    origin.

    Trying to connect to www.google.co.uk from a French IP is entertaining
    but it works.

    Using <https://google.co.uk/ncr>
    should help, ncr = no country redirect.

    Ah - good. I'll keep that in mind.
