Astrill, it works very well.

You can also get it on the cheap nowadays. 35$ for a year!

Avoid StrongVPN if you are interested in maximizing your privacy. They maintain logs of your activity. Not sure about the other providers.

I suggest WiTopia. They are fast and truely anonymous. Cost is a little more than average but well worth it for peace of mind.

I've been very happy with Witopia. You can set up multiple portals depending on what you want to watch. One in England for BBC and use another in the States for US content.
