Anyway to see Youtube live streams in Sweden?

[Deleted]

So the youtube livestreams are blocked in Sweden it appears and since my favorite podcast (Painkiller Already) now livestreams on youtube instead of Twitch because of some stupid Machinima contract I can't listen in. Is there any way to make youtube think I live in america or something?

You could use a Proxy I guess.

You can try anonymouse.org

When I used a proxy it didn't load the video and when I tried anonymouse.org it didn't let me onto the page. I guess google is too smart..

I'm using Firefox, Foxyproxy addon and it works just fine

Web-based/PHP proxies won't work, since the embedded video/stream is still loading directly from Youtube. You'd need a VPN or a proper proxy in order to do that. FlyVPN (free for shared proxies, not free if you want a dedicated IP) is ideal for this sort of thing.

Thank you Synthaxx! You're my hero!

Just noticed that Steam has american prices, would I get in trouble for buying something under a proxy?
