This doesn't bypass the blackouts if you are here in the south.If anyone has Hulu Live, YTTV, cable or other cord cutters you can add ESPN+(5.99) or Disney+(diff prices but includes ESPN+) and watch almost anything. I have the sports package with YTTV so I’m not sure if that effects it.
I also live in Wyoming so unaware of blackouts.
Even if they shut down VPN access, it won't last long. Since Sinclair is partnering with a casino, I don't think it will be long before the regionals are available on every TV provider again. They will most likely be attempting to get as much gambling revenue as possible, instead of relying mostly on carriage fees. To get as much gambling revenue as possible, they will want the stations on as many televisions as possible, so will have terms more favorable to the TV providers. I think by the end of 2021, the stations will be widely available again.I’m in Atlanta. I used to get the Fox RSNs as part of YouTube tv, but not anymore. ACCNX is streamed on ESPN online, but it is blacked out in the Atlanta area, so I use a vpn server (from Nord VPN) to get an IP address outside the Atlanta area. This allows me to get the ACCNX stream on ESPN online and project it from my computer to my tv. I hope fox and ESPN don’t figure out a way to shut this down too.
For those that missed it (like me):
