Great News! You can watch the Winter Olympics in Sochi…wherever you are in the world

The 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia are upon us and will continue to 23 February.

Very few countries are broadcasting the games due to expensive broadcasting rights, but there is good news. Some of the main countries streaming the event live online include the US, UK, Australia, Canada and, unsurprisingly, most Nordic countries. If you live in the States you will need a subscription to the US network NBC, which has the broadcasting rights, and if you don’t live in the other countries streaming the games, regular access will be pretty much impossible.

Many winter sports fans based in countries without coverage may have given up on the idea of watching one of the many events such as curling, ice hockey, and snowboarding, but a VPN can easily make this possible.

We’re currently seeing a massive increase for our VPN service, particularly for our Norwegian servers, and we guess these are Norwegian expats wanting to watch the Olympics. For those of you who aren’t able to watch the games, you just need to purchase HMA! Pro VPN where our VPN will assign you a different IP address (choose from 68,000 IP addresses located in 132 locations, in 63 countries). If, for example, you want to watch the games shown by a UK channel,  simply connect to a UK based server and head to one of the channels who are broadcasting it and hey presto! You are now virtually residing in the UK; every online activity you perform is as if you are in the UK, therefore, you can watch the games.

It gets even better as we have upgraded a number of our servers, meaning that you will have even faster connections during this winter Olympic season.  You can enjoy the games from anywhere you are in the world. I think that deserves a gold medal!
