#5The VPN is operated by "SurfEasy Inc., an Opera company based in Canada".
Just tested it and it worked flawlessly to watch a YouTube video that has been blocked in my country. [Edit: Netflix seems to block SurfEasy already. Sad.]

If the traffic is encrypted then they wouldn't see into it, but it would go through their servers, so in worst case scenario you'd be surfing from behind the Great Chinese Firewall
