How does it work? You can't _change_ your ip (except if you have a dynamic ip. it'll still be in your isp's ip range...). Does it use a proxy or what? If it does, remember, they could be sniffing your tcp packets...

It is legal. You are just using the servers to connect the content you want, not spoofing your ip.

IP Spoofing is legal, but can be, and often is, used for illegal purposes.
