If somebody theoretically wanted to watch all seasons of the amazing show New Zealand Today when the official streaming is geo locked and has blacklisted VPNs in NZ - how would they theoretically do it?

I would hypothetically look up how to set up a Usenet account for downloading and a tracker account for finding said show. I would also buy an eye patch, a funny hat, and a parrot for me shoulder...arrrr.

I thought about hypothetically confirming that Usenet indexers have this show right up to the latest episode.

Have they also blacklisted all IP addresses of all server hosting services in NZ?

If not, theoretically one could rent some cheap VPS type thing, install a VPN server of one’s choice then connect to it.

$5 hosted instance and VPN, or find a VPN service with dynamic regional endpoints like Proton. A morning show will not have defeated the innernette so easily and completely.
