Hulu will not allow login because of proxy

Hello,


Error: Hulu is available in the U.S. only, and cannot be used with an anonymous proxy service.


Is this caused by ICloud+ IP spoofing? If so, how do I change this for these type of websites?


Thanks

Go into your Safari Privacy preferences and change "Hide IP Address" ro "From trackers only".

Hello there, mac2jayb!


Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you have an issue logging into Hulu on your Mac. Does this happen in Safari? Are you able to test in a different browser? Is this happening with any other streaming services?

  2. Choose Apple ID.

Let us know if you continue to have issues and take care!

Agree 100% . Why apple has not given users the ability to whitelist sites is beyond comprehendible. So the suggestion "turn off" when using those sites is hilarious and clearly comes from users who have no idea what you are actually protecting. Id' suggest every user of the internet have to take a course like driving a car. Maybe then people will see not only the security risks they take every day online, but they would also understand how some issues are a simple fix, the company doesn't fix it for a reason.
