Virtual Private Networks

VPN Servers

Have you ever tried to listen to some content from another country only to find out that they are blocking the connection from your country?  I discovered this problem when the 2012 Olympics were taking place and I wanted to watch some of the events in the UK.  Unfortunately, they were blocking connections from the United States.  By using a VPN Tunnel to the UK, I could trick the networks into thinking that I was in the UK by using a client that expatriated my connection and routed the signal through the UK's VPN Server.

Here is a good place to get a VPN Client, it's open source, and easy to use.  It's called VPN Gate and it creates a Virtual Private Network connection to any VPN server in any country.  It is sponsored by the University of Tsukuba, Japan.
