Hey Canada! Sick of going through your feed reader, having one of your favourite sites include a clip from The Daily Show or Adult Swim, only to see “THIS VIDEO NOT AVAILABLE IN YOUR COUNTRY” when you try to watch? Me too!
That’s why when I surf, I surf with the AnchorFree Hotspot Shield VPN. It’s a program that… well, you don’t care. All it does is pretend that you’re not from Canada, where the Teletoon won’t get around to showing S4 of The Venture Bros. until sometime in 2010. So you can watch The Venture Bros. along with the rest of the world, and not some cultural cripple without access to real TV.
Download it. Run it. Use the internet like the internet was intended.

It used to work a while back, until Hulu blocked the proxy it uses. There was also a lot of controversy about the way this application uses your private data. I use Tor when I want to anonymize only I keep uninstalling it because I don’t like it starting up on startup and eating all my ram. As far as not being to watch streams goes, I don’t worry about that now. If there’s something I really want to see I’ll just get the full torrent. There’s only so many pixeled 150 x 150 squared mosaic flash videos you can want to watch anyway. http://www.thebox.bz has all the shows I need and if that hasn’t, mininova probably does.
“Use the internet like the internet was intended.”
Amen, sir.
