Hey I am wondering if anyone has tried HotSpot Shield on their mac mini to play Hulu in Canada?

It's more or less a free VPN service that would bypass the US restrictions. I am curious to see if it would work in Boxee on the Hulu player. If it does work I may be tempted to get myself a Mac Mini and cancel Rogers Cable!!!

I tried it from my work PC here in Whistler BC Canada and it works great. I wonder if it could be installed on an AppleTV?

ive just tried it in the UK and it works, well sort of. I cant get past the first advert when trying to play anything in Hulu. When i connect via the website it works fine though. Just not within Boxee, Any ideas?
