The VPN services are provided by SurfEasy. Opera owns that company.
It was reported a couple of months ago that Chinese private equity investors sought to purchase the company: http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/11/business/dealbook/china-opera-kunlun-qihoo-golden-brick.html.
Privatoria and CyberGhost are pretty good and very cheap. They are not free, but you ought not to expect free VPN services that truly respect your privacy for a price of nought.

Thanks for sharing your exprience about PIA but I have recently found information about best vpn service on Lifehacker Australia and I have subscribed Ivacy VPN from that list.
Thanks.
Opera owns SurfEasy but I think they are maintaing a separate brand. I have used it for years and it is still in the App Store. They have a nice free trial program...or did

You would have to try and find out. If they are cracking down on VPNs it could work one day but not the next.

Are you talking about local market blackouts?
VPN would come in handy then, not so sure if MLB would bother to figure out VPN blocking.
There are other possibilities to watch MLB teams streaming.
Just google them.
ATTENTION! Depending on where you watch NEVER DOWNLOAD ANYTHING.
There are people taking websites hostage posting :
Your media player is out of date, your flash player is out of date , you can't watch and have to sign up etc.etc.
All fishing attempts to install malware.
When you click to get rid of all the x boxes, it switches to advertising.
Luckily with SAFARI in tabbed mode as soon as an advertising windows opens you can close it.
Anyway, I watch a lot of European broadcasts which I was not able to get before.
I also recommend when not using VPN to close it . Some of my business partners cannot get my e-mails when I have VPN on.
Good luck.
Just tried and unless I did it wrong, it does not work.
Yes, I was referencing the blackout restrictions.

Yes, Some of my friends have tried the same service and they also recommend me to use it but I want to know on which devices it is compatible if it works on IOS devices so it will be very useful for me.
