Half right, half wrong. You paid for Malaysia region content, not the globally. If yes why not netflix open broad to worldwide?
Going via VPN nothing wrong, that said, the fault are which content you browsing after you get through it.
Both action(watch extra content at VPN & pirate software) are breaching the law.

Of course im not saint la, i do pirates also
but i dont promote my fault action.

The concept are different.
