Have you ever tried to find and download a book with no success due to location restrictions? Some retailers only sell in certain locations, like the US. So it’s pretty impossible to get some ebooks because of geo-blocking. Books aren’t always priced the same everywhere either, even online. So people in some countries pay more than others.
But not those armed with a VPN. It will hide your IP address and create a fake one, making it easy to get past location restrictions. However, not all VPN services support e-readers or work in every country. So make sure to find a VPN for your Kindle Fire (get it here), or whatever tablet you may have, before signing up. Luckily, there are plenty out there to choose from.
