From the other side of the equation, I would like to use this for avoiding timeouts. Quite a few applications time out after some time. I've even had free software applications tell me "You're running a version of XXXX, please upgrade." I've also had restricted materials time-out (in one case, a class distributed an educational application that stopped working when the semester ended). Bypassing these seems like a good and noble endeavor.
