Hulu was one of the first online video-on-demand services. It is split between Disney and NBC, with Disney owning the majority share. Its breakout show has been The Handmaid’s Tale.
Proton VPN users can watch all their favorite shows on Hulu no matter where they are!
Additionally, Proton VPN also enables you to stream Disney+, HBO Max, Netflix, and Amazon Prime Video.
How to watch Hulu with Proton VPN

For the fastest and most reliable connection, please connect to the server that is closest to your current location. To find the nearest servers to you, check the full list of our servers.
On your Android TV, connecting to the United States will automatically connect you to a Plus server if you have the right subscription.
Unfortunately, streaming Hulu on a mobile device (Android or iOS) outside the United States requires the Hulu mobile app, and to download the app, you need access to the US version of the App or Google Play store. You will also need to register a US credit card with your account.
Proton VPN does not condone the use of our VPN service to bypass copyright regulations.
