Is it possible to watch Amazon Prime (UK) or Peacock (US) through illicit means? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I'm currently an Amazon Prime video member (Australia) and want to watch a show that appears to be only available on Amazon UK or Peacock US.

The show is a little gem of a show called Hapless that few people seem to know about and the pirating community has ignored or forgotten about.

There have been two seasons of six episodes thus far, and only parts of the first season (from 2020) are available as active torrents while the most recent season (2024) has been completely ignored by the 'community'.

I've tried to watch it online at the usual illicit places but it appears to unavailable. When I tried to watch it at Amazon UK, my VPN was detected and it wouldn't let me.

So my question is: is it possible to bypass the constraints at either Amazon or Peacock and watch this show? Alternatively, does anyone know of a private tracker that might have it as a download?

thank you!

Try the other VPNs. The last time I used a VPN to stream test the other location was PIA. VPNs with servers for streaming should work.
