Q: International users
In the Apple TV group, I've seen several questions from users who are obviously using devices to access US iTunes and Netflix from outside the country. The giveaway is when they mention that it works when they set the region to their own country. They are often quite vociferous regarding the inadequacies of Apple TV and iTunes in general. I attempted to report one such post (they were discussing the best service to use), but apparently hosts saw nothing out of line. I try to suggest that they might look elsewhere to resolve these problems. I have no personal problem with what they're doing, particularly since they actually pay for any content they get, so they're not actually stealing. But how should we handle them in these Apple discussions? Ignore them? Be as helpful as reasonably possible? What do you think?
PS I once suggested that someone in Japan might get a computer wizard to help set up a *** and that post went poof! so fast... OK, fair enough. But what about DNS proxies and "unblockers"? There's a lot of amazing technology out there.
Apple TV (4th generation), tvOS 9.2
