CBS has some of my favorite movies and shows but it’s only available in a few locations on CBS All Access or Hulu. I was frustrated that I couldn’t access it so I decided to find a way in. After a lot of trial and error, I finally found a solution that works.

The simplest way to watch CBS anywhere is with a VPN — an app that tricks sites like CBS All Access and Hulu into thinking that you’re in one of the locations they support.

What is CBS?

CBS is an American commercial broadcast television and radio network. It serves as the flagship property of the CBS Entertainment Group division of ViacomCBS. The network is headquartered at the CBS Building in New York City, with major production facilities and operations at the CBS Broadcast Center in New York City, and CBS Television City and the CBS Studio Center in Los Angeles.

CBS was originally an abbreviation for Columbia Broadcasting System, its former legal name that was used from 1928 to 1974. CBS is also sometimes referred to as the Eye Network, in reference to the company's trademark symbol, in use since 1951. It has also been called the Tiffany Network, alluding to the perceived high quality of its programming during the tenure of William S. Paley. It can also refer to some of CBS's first demonstrations of color television, which were held in the former Tiffany and Company Building in New York City in 1950.

Listed as an ‘Enemy of the Internet’ by Reporters without Borders, Vietnam has some of the strictest internet access laws in the world.

Censorship laws in Vietnam are supposed to restrict politically or religiously sensitive content, along with violent or sexually explicit material.

In reality, you may face issues while accessing journalism websites, human rights websites, streaming media websites, social media platforms, torrent sites, blogs, and more.

Whether you’re planning a visit to Vietnam or you’re a long-time resident, the only way to browse the internet freely without fear of the police cracking down on you is to use a Virtual Private Network (VPN), which allows you to hide your actual IP address.

Not just any VPN will work – to ensure your identity remains hidden at all times, read our list of the 4 best VPNs for Vietnam.

How to watch CBS in Vietnam using VPN

Even if you’ve never heard of a VPN before, they’re very simple to set-up and use. Follow the steps below to watch CBS All Access online from anywhere.

Here’s how to change your IP address location from outside the US:

1. Sign up with a VPN that unblocks CBS All Access. We recommend NordVPN however CyberGhost and ExpressVPN are two suitable alternatives.

2. Download and install the VPN app or browser extension for your device.

3. Open the VPN app or browser extension and connect to a server in the US. This will provide you with an American IP address for watching CBS All Access abroad.

4. Go to CBS All Access and sign in with your cable provider or Paramount+ account.

You should now be able to play videos on CBS from outside of America. If you’re still encountering restrictions, try clearing your browser’s cookies.

Can I use a free VPN to watch CBS?

While there are hundreds of free VPN providers available, we strongly advise against their use. First of all, free VPNs often provide a substandard experience because they have fewer servers and yet more users than premium services. Second, streaming sites have been cracking down on VPN usage in recent years, so there’s a good chance that a free VPN wouldn’t work, even assuming you had a decent download speed.

It’s easy to forget that free VPNs are businesses. Despite their rhetoric about protecting privacy, they exist to make money. As there are no upfront fees, free VPNs use several different ways to profit from you. Their money-making methods range from putting ads onto the sites you visit, to selling details of your activities to third parties without your knowledge.

There are good reasons to be skeptical: in recent years, we’ve seen free VPN providers knowingly install malware, lie about their encryption protocols, and even turn their users’ computers into part of a botnet. In order to keep yourself and your personal information safe, we recommend using a reliable VPN with a history of protecting its users’ privacy.
