‘Netflix blackout for holiday Brits’

BRITISH citizens may be blocked from using online services like Netflix while on European holidays after Brexit.

Under current ‘portability’ rules, anyone who subscribes to these services has the same content they pay for at home while visiting other EU countries.

Services offering film, music and videogame downloads and e-books let customers access their purchases while abroad.

But after March 29 next year, they could be restricted to simply the services that are available to stream on local providers.
