Overplay works well for us
We use Overplay and are really enjoying the service. So far, it's allowed us to play pretty much anything we want.
Here's a quick review.
We recently got ourselves a Draytek router which can supposedly be set-up to use the Overplay VPN as a tunnel on-demand, so that Netflix and all the other services can be made available to any device on your network. We'll do a write up on it as soon as we can.
In the meantime, Overplay works pretty well on any laptop and, also, the iPhone and iPad, to get around georestricted content.

As I watch Netflix and BBC iPlayer, I need a VPN service that can offer servers in UK and US, so I settled with Overplay.net
For just under $10 a month.

I found a method is which working well for me in Canada. I imagine it will work in anywhere else as well.
Basically, you will need a Virtual Prepaid U.S. credit card and a proxy service to allow you to sign up and watch Netflix outside USA.

Witopia - you're fired.
It's one thing to work against the customer in some cases, but then to also paint it with the marketing spin "we are protecting you" is too much on the deceitful side.
I am quite surprised Witopia allows you to access Netflix.

Does anyone know anything more about FoxyProxy? Is it just made for Firefox, or is it actually put out by Mozilla as well?
Will it work well for specifically Netflix and Hulu in Israel?

I use it to automagically route unencrypted connections through my home router when I'm using public wifi elsewhere.

I use FoxyProxy all the time - at least, I use the plugin for Firefox. It's not a proxy service, though they do link to proxy services on their website.
