Subject: Re: Semi OT: recommend US based free proxy service?
Hi Mark
I think the free application hotspot shield can connect you to a US based
proxy to suit your purposes. The proxy is preset by designers of the
application and it's a pretty well used program so it should be fairly
reliable and not overly bad for security but it is still a proxy so I would
recommend just using the program when you want to use your US-based
services. Let us know how you go with it if you decide to try it.
Regards
Ruben
Having googled and not wanting to wade through the (at least first few)
pages of very dubious service providers…
Can anyone recommend a reasonably reliable free proxy service so my
computer can appear as if in the US to a service provider.
Last month I subscribed to a streaming service that has the licenses for a
number of shows that I like but aren’t broadcast on Australia TV.
Unfortunately I found that many (indeed most) of the shows I want to
watch and they advertise aren’t actually available for me to stream in
Australia as an Australian distributer has rights to them (but is either
not actually distributing them or only streaming the latest show and no
back catalogue to catch up on) so I've either got to disguise my location
as being in the US or stop waisting my money and cancel my subscription
and go back to bit-torrenting. Seems all a bit silly in this day and age
to offer a legal alternative to discourage bit-torrenting rips then to
block it due to legal issues that encourage the subscribers back to bit
torrents
