Quick questions

Is it legal to watch Peacock in Australia with a VPN?

Using a VPN is legal in most countries and ROOT is a legitimate privacy tool. ROOT changes where your connection appears to be, not what you are allowed to watch. Only stream content you have the right to access, with a valid subscription or entitlement where one is required.

Will it be fast enough for HD?

Yes. ROOT uses WireGuard tunnels with BBR on every exit, so a nearby the USA server holds up for HD streaming. If one exit is busy, switch to another city and reload.

Can I watch Premier League on Peacock abroad?
