Some friends have safety concerns that mean they need to appear digitally as if they’re inside the USA while being elsewhere physically. Standard commercial VPNs are easy to detect (else I’d recommend Mullvad), so they need an option that looks like a residential connection.

They could potentially DIY it by leaving a VPN server at a relative’s house, but I’m asking here for subscription services. It’s best if they have a Mac OS app that’s foolproof, with a clear visual indication that it’s in use, and a feature to block traffic if the VPN is disconnected.

tl;dr: what’s the closest residential VPN to Mullvad?

      As long as you were paying taxes to the US, the state, and the county you’re working in, I’m not sure who would have standing to claim fraud.

      You’d get fired for sure.

      And I personally would never do it. But I also have no sympathy for corporations making wacky rules.
