Flixed – A way to find out what's blocked and what's not on your Netflix

Last week, the Netflix announced that it will increase measures to prevent its users from circumventing the regional content block. The news made some users apprehensive, especially those who use VPNs ou proxies to watch movies and series available on United States or in another region. Regardless of this situation, the  flixed é a tool that can be very useful.

Flixed? And how do I block?

A few months ago while talking to a co-worker, who is German, I was amazed to learn that many movies he likes were not available in the Netflix here from Brazil. But what does it mean for a movie or series not to be available for a certain country?

Each country has specific legislation to control which movies or series can be shown, for example, in India no movie shown on TV can contain sex or drug abuse, so if you are in your hotel room and want to watch “If you drink, don't marry”, you probably won't find the film in the Netflix.

Other than that, some films are not shown in certain countries because there are already agreements for the exhibition of these titles between the studio and some broadcasters. A good example of this is the movie "Eleven men and a secret", it is blocked for viewing in Brazil and the USA, but it can be watched in Europe and Australia, this is due to the fact that in Brazil the Time Warner has the exclusive right to exhibit this film, so much so that the Globo when he exhibits the same he pays the exhibition rights to the Time Warner Brazil.

In this way, many users have made use of VPNs and other means to change your location, and thus bypass the region lock of the Netflix (although the practice is prohibited in the terms and conditions of use of the service). O flixed helps you see where the movie you want is available, listing the contents of streaming around the world.

When you click on a movie or series, you see details such as duration, release date, cast, synopsis and a trailer for the work. O flixed also displays flags on the right side of the screen, which indicate in which region that content can be watched. If the Netflix not restricting the use of VPNs, just choose the appropriate location and enjoy the streaming.

even in front back (possible) blocks, the flixed may continue to be useful, as it has “gained” a very interesting new function. Instead of just saying in which region that movie is available, it can be used as a tool that facilitates the search for content within the Netflix Brazilian. To learn more about the tool, just access the flixed.io and explore, without borders, the content of the Netflix.
