To watch Netflix for instance.

Netflix is able to detect you're using a VPN, and advices to switch back to enjoy its services, I'm sure. At least I got that alert recently. So is there another bypass?
Just throwing it out there - are you sure there isn't a session cookie tied to your login still on your machine? Or, am I completely wrong and you're just limited to the country's offerings by your location on registration?
they block known vpn and vps ip spaces, it's been a cat and mouse game for the past few years between vpn providers and netflix

currently working providers can be usually found on /r/NetflixByProxy/

You're not limited by registration. I've travelled and found that I had a different library in different countries.
Can they detect I'm using bittorrent?
I didn't realize people had ripped Netflix original content.
Everything on Netflix is available on Bittorrent.
i get your point, but connecting to a random country won't be of much help though.
> Automatically connect you to a random VPN in a country of your choice.

Country wouldn't be random in this case

You choose the country, it just selects a random VPN within that country.
You can choose the country by passing -c argument.

Example: easyvpn -c JP

oh, my bad, didn't notice that
