How to watch the 2026 Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics with a VPN
If you’re traveling abroad and want to keep up with the 2026 Winter Olympics action while away, a VPN can enhance your privacy and security when streaming. It encrypts your traffic and prevents your internet service provider from throttling speeds, and can also be helpful when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks while traveling, adding an extra layer of protection for your devices and logins.
VPNs are legal in many countries, including the US and Canada, and can be used for legitimate purposes like improving online privacy and security. However, some streaming services may have policies that restrict VPN use to access region-specific content. If you’re considering a VPN for streaming, check the platform’s terms of service to ensure compliance.
If you choose to use a VPN, follow the provider’s installation instructions to ensure you’re connected securely and in compliance with applicable laws and service agreements. Some streaming platforms may block access when a VPN is detected, so verify whether your streaming subscription allows VPN use.
