My5 is Inaccessible Outside the UK

As with other on-demand streaming services, the content on My5 is region-locked and can only be watched from the UK. While you might experience no issues in accessing My5 from abroad, when you try to load a video, the following message pops up: “We’re sorry but you must be located in the British Isles to view this content.”

However, there’s a way to catch up on your favorite shows while on vacation or living abroad. By using a good streaming VPN such as PureVPN, you can mask your original IP address and location with that of any country in the world.

So, when you access unavailable content, the website or service you’re using will be tricked into believing that your traffic is originating from the correct region instead of your own, and you’ll become eligible to view it.

Why Shouldn’t You Stream My5 Using a Free VPN?

There are many reasons why you should refrain from using free VPNs for streaming My5, including but not limited to:

Slow Speeds

Free VPNs are a terrible choice for watching My5. They have a limited number of servers, which means you’re bound to face slow streaming speeds, endless buffering, and frequent disconnections. Also, their IPs are often the first to be banned by streaming services, so you probably won’t be able to watch anything in the first place.

Data Selling

Just like any business out there, free VPNs also require money to run. Some rely on showing you ads, which can make browsing, streaming, and gaming a pain. Others track your online activities across websites, and sell that data to interested third-parties for a profit, mostly without your knowledge or explicit consent.

Unsafe Practices

It’s challenging to find free VPNs that are safe to use. Most of them have information-stealing malware that can wreak havoc on your device. In fact, a few don’t even bother encrypting your traffic – this means that anyone can intercept it to see what you’re up to online like the websites you visit, apps you use, and so on.
