I'm not so sure. Renting a VPN seems an awful lot like renting a small space on their network. Sure, it's not residency. What if I rented you a tiny part of my house? Part of the rent includes network access. But you travel, lots, like you're never there. How would you feel about "place shifting" your access to these services?

Okay, okay... I'm reaching. But I guess I'm saying, I don't see it as immoral to use a VPN in order to establish network presence in the US or Canada or wherever.
