Ask Slashdot: Trustworthy Proxy Services?

gusoline writes "Since I'm now living in Brazil (originally from the U.S.), I'm looking for a reliable, trustworthy proxy service I can use to both access services I've used for a long time (Pandora, Netflix, etc.) and services I want to try out (Spotify). Since I'm not looking for illegal downloads or to hide what I'm doing, I'm less concerned about anonymity than I am about region restrictions, reliability, latency, and security of passwords and traffic through their network. I'm OK paying for services that deliver what I want (including the Proxy service itself). Any suggestions from the Slashdot crowd?"

    Welcome to the 21st century, where corporations are allowed to globalize -- but not people!

    Depending on your preference, create a Linux or Windows machine on AWS in a US presence, and then do your work from there.
