Rebroadcasts the ESPN3 feed with no need to install anything. Just DO NOT install any of the pop ups.

To watch ESPN3 in the blackout area, you may download an extension for Firefox called Modify Headers,

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/modify-headers/ ↗ ↗

Install the extension.

1. Click the Firefox icon in the top left, then go to Add-ons
2. Click the extensions tab if it's not selected already
3. Click on Headers in the Modify Headers box
4. In the dropdown box, select Add
5. Type X-Forwarded-For in the Header name box
6. Type 66.58.144.0 [I AM USING 12.17.139.0 an Alaska IP address I found with google] (or any other IP from the non-blacked out area) in the Header value box
7. Click the Add button
8. Make sure that the new entry has a green dot next to it
9. Hit OK and close out of the Add-ons manager tab
10. Hit alt to bring up another menu at the top of your Firefox window
11. Go to View > Toolbars > Add-ons bar
12. Check that the icon for the Modify Headers extension is red and not gray (it should be at the bottom left of your window)
13. If it's gray, click the icon to start it
14. Open up ESPN3 and you should be good to go!

And make sure you clear the cache too.

The workaround was confirmed to work by @tundrahok and @JayhawkInMizery

Hey @tundrahok and @JayhawkInMizery Why does the above website still report my actual IP address after I did everything above? Did I do something wrong or does it only fool ESPN? Thanks.

It works for ESPN, but Netflix doesn't seem to buy it. I haven't really tested it anywhere else.

Thanks @tundrahok
