Hello Sailors,

So sadly my family still insists on using Netflix(for now), and with their recent restrictions you can only have one active TV at the time, unless the TVs are in the same home. So this had me question, what happens if all TVs are put on the same tailnet(or same subnet for that sake), would that be able to “trick” the netflix system? Has anyone tried this? Or do we already know that it wouldnt work?

(I am working on setting up the full arr stack)

    I’m not very familiar woth Tailscale but the procedure should be as simple as making sure all the traffic runs through the same exit node. Be aware that this might severely strain the upload of that exit node device bit from a technical point of view, it should work. Wait for someone that actually uses Tailscale to respond with details :) Edit: are you running tailscale on the machine that accesses netflix or on a router?
