I don't use Netflix but that never happened to me.


I'd go so far as to say that it's actually never happened to anyone that doesn't use Netflix.


I can't tell if this is a 'by definition' comment or if you mean that Netflix is the only major service which blocks VPN IPs.

The latter isn't quite true, sometimes a site is having a bad day and sets up Cloudflare rules which make VPN access impractical or impossible, but it's more true than not: I can usually use Netflix off a VPN, just not consistently.
