Netflix last week announced it will crack down on members using proxies or unblockers to access titles from overseas. That follows the company’s announcement at CES 2016 earlier this month of a global rollout that has it offering streaming content in 190 countries. The problem is that not all of Netflix’s content is available globally, said Netflix’s David Fullagar. It’s making progress in licensing content around the world. “This isn’t something Netflix wants to do; it’s something they’re required to do by contract,” said analyst Rob Enderle.
