    The article is a bit old, but HideMyAss still works with DR, meaning that you can watch all the FIFA World Cup 2018 matches on DR using this method. You can watch all other DR content as well, and you can also use HideMyAss to watch TV2 in Denmark, so go ahead and have fun!

      I am not sure if I understand your question. Can you please rephrase it maybe? This solution described here works for those located outside Denmark (abroad), but who want to watch the national Danish TV still from their present location (which is not really possible).
