Max is a web video streaming platform that offers all you would expect from the name and much more. It went online in May 2020 to complement HBO’s other digital media. This service provides premium content that HBO hasn’t invested much effort in its platforms’ internationalization.
Hence, Max serves only US-based users, deploying a geo-blocking technology to prevent its availability outside the region.
In this article, we will guide you on how to watch HBO Max outside the US using a Virtual Private Network (VPN).
