Well here's the problem with that. First and foremost, I do not know how to do that and from googling it, the best I can figure I would have to plug a router into a router (the Verizon mobile hotpot cube) and it would take quite a bit of effort to set that up (according to what I read). Juice not worth the squeeze because I would have to pay someone to do it.
Secondly I was just reading about YTTV and VPNs and apparently they aggressively fight against that and POTENTIALLY could block access. So again, the juice is not worth the squeeze.
For now, my best solution is to do what I did, tell them to F off and find alternate ways to view the content I want. If they would have just did this location thing every 3 months I probably could have lived with that, but they got to a point where it was about every 2 weeks for me.
I was just reading that Disney Plus has a deal where they limit you to how many times you can watch out of your "home area." (Anti-password sharing protection I believe.) And I assume at some point, they're going to give me shit because my IP is going to be all over the place. I don't watch if often and I wouldn't even have them if it wasn't part of a Hulu, Max, and Disney bundle at a good price ($30 bucks a month for all 3 with no ads.) Push come s to shove, I'll just drop down to just Hulu.
I asked my buddy the other day "Why is that just trying to do something simple like watch a little TV has become such a major pain in the ass?
