Learn the limits of VPNs. This is a service that allows you to hide the IP address of your computer under a different IP address, helping you to watch videos on a computer or system that is blocked or restricted. However, if the VPN’s address is on YouTube’s block list, you still won’t be able to view the content blocked due to the region’s location. [1] X Research Source

  • If you have a VPN service that allows region throttling, you can switch to a different region that allows the video you want to watch.
  • If you haven’t signed up for a VPN service, look for one that allows you to change your region.

Install a VPN if needed. If your computer or phone doesn’t have a VPN, buy and install it.

  • Some reputable VPN services are NordVPN and ExpressVPN.

Turn on the VPN service. If your VPN has a desktop program (or mobile app), you’ll start the program or app and enable the VPN. This is to enable the VPN service for the current Internet connection.

  • Each VPN will have different activation steps; so go to the VPN service’s online support page if you don’t know how to do it.
  • Depending on the VPN service selected, you will install the VPN on your computer or phone.

Select a country or region if possible. If you have a VPN service that allows you to change the connection region, choose a different country than where you live. Here’s how to make sure you have an IP address that doesn’t match the one being blocked.

  • You’ll have to try multiple countries before you find one that doesn’t block what you want to watch.

    Open the video. Click or tap the video you want to watch to open it. If the video is allowed to show in the VPN’s zone, you can watch the video normally.

    • If you still can’t watch the video, try changing the VPN’s regional settings.
  • Advice

    • Many videos blocked in the US usually only block IP addresses here, which means that most IP addresses outside of the US can watch those videos.
    • Videos can be blocked for a variety of reasons, including but not limited to copyright issues that make content visible only in certain regions, or government censorship.

    Warning

    • Avoid entering YouTube account information when you use a free VPN or proxy.
