Why use a VPN to watch HBO?
HBO limits what you watch by region
Your favorite HBO TV and movies may not be available when you travel to another country.
With a VPN (virtual private network), you can encrypt your data and hide your location to watch HBO anywhere. Simply connect to a VPN server in your home country to stream securely as if you’re home.
