I was under the impression that they are using OpenVPN set up but it seems they are actually using something less by just changing the nameserver in local PC:

However as far as I know, simply setting up a recursive NS based in US won't actually help to identify the device as from US? Is that correct?

For those who don't know what Unblock-Us is, it is basically something that enables you to watch US Netflix with a non-US IP/location.

So what is the technology used and is there any open source package I can use to set up one for my personal use? I don't really like OpenVPN since I have devices on platforms that are not OpenVPN-ready yet and I am too lazy to connect and disconnect my OpenVPN all the time.
