Mashable - The Social Media Guide: Pandora and Hulu Hack for Non-US Citizens

  • jakeBangalter · 1 year ago
    Nope. In my computer (with Hotspot Shield), I can't see nothing. Hulu is still blocked.

    Worked for me, both hulu and pandora! it only seems fair that expats in NY's 6th borrough (Berlin) should have access to Colbert

    VPN, not VPM ;)

    Darn it, thanks for posting this. I've been using this for awhile now and now that they know that people are using this to get around their filters, they'll block it for sure.

    Looks like I've gotta start looking for alternatives...

    Oh yeah, it works, Pandora is now available in Italy, it's long time that I can't listen too it, it's my first love. Due to this unavailability I discover Deezer.com and Jango.com that are funny to, oh yes and Last.fm also.

    Woo hoo! I'm in Australia and finally have access to pandora again. Sweet.
  • keanu · 1 year ago
    yes, it works in china. now i can listen to pandora again.

    and there is a trick: maybe it's too slow when you enable hotspot shield to listen pandora. then you can disconnect it. pandora still works, and speed will be normal.

    It's worked for me for the past couple of days - I'm in the UK and have been able to get a GrandCentral number and even watch Hulu videos. That being said, we don't know very much about these guys, hence I'd recommend everyone to still be cautious.
  • JapanMil · 1 year ago
    Yep, it works for me in Japan. Turn it on and I can watch the episode. Turn it off and I get a message saying I need to be in the US to watch the episode. Great tool, I hope these guys make a lot of money.

    BEST REGARDS FROM SLOVAKIA... ;)

    It works with every single website like The CW, Hulu, NBC, CBS, FOX, Showtime and a few more website except for ABC. It also works on Joost. You can view CBS, Showtime and MTV on Joost for those outside US now.

    I can't get connected, everytime I try I get this message: "Disconnected [bandwith exceeded]". What's the problem?

    It's because you have paid for a cheaper broadband package which limits your monthly bandwidth, (amount of internet surfing), you need to wait till the start of next month or select a package without a bandwidth limit.

  • Evert · 1 year ago
    Well, it works from Norway... But it seems like the connection is not fast enough to stream hulu-video at a decent rate... :-/
  • josh · 1 year ago
    They have a 10GB limit so watch out for that as it can get used uo pretty quickly with Hulu!

    You could also buy a SOCKS5 proxy located in U.S, or an SSH Proxy (requires putty) located in United states. Furthermore, you could buy a hosting account (shared,vps,dedicated) in US that has jailed or root Shell access via ssh and make your own ssh socks5 proxy. There are numerous places that sell such services.

    works, but way too slow to play the video properly. pauses lots (and still doesnt work to let it sit there for an hour pre-loading, nor playing a 5 min section with pauses, then rewinding and re-playing it. it pauses lots again, in different spots).

    video card and computer specs are great, can play full video games and movies without skipping.
  • lia · 1 year ago
    honk I have the same problem! Has anyone figured out a solution? My connection is pretty fast but I can't watch more than 30 seconds of hulu without pauses. Is there anyway to pre-load or is Hotspot Shield just too slow?
  • titto titto · 1 year ago
    How come these fuck jerks keep promoting this hotspot shit, it's a fuckin virus and full of spyware... fuck OFF!
  • Evert · 1 year ago
    Well, dunno where you got your version, but the one I downloaded is NOT a virus, and the only 'spyware' is optional at install. Simply mark you don't want it, and you don't get it...

    I found another proxy based hack using GPass anti-censorship application to view full quality video streaming feeds of Hulu and ABC TV outside USA, check it : http://www.megaleecher.net/How_To_Watch_ABC_TV_...

    You don't have to wait for hulu to allow international viewers! Just buy a simple vpn... It's what I did for my travels around the world. I purchased mine from www.hidemynet.com at only 5$ per month, they had instant activation so I was able to start watching immediately.

  • Erin · 4 months ago
    Doesn't work anymore :/ At least, Hulu have blocked it.
  • AJS · 4 months ago
    Haven't tried Hotspot Shield in the past couple of weeks, but I found that if you started it up before opening up your Web browser it was more effective, whereas if you started it after visiting Hulu then the site knew you were using it.

    Won't work for me anymore. Darn cencorship
  • Peah · 4 months ago
    Once the security software was updated on my Mac, it refused to work.
