title: use vpn with python requests
body: <p>I have to following problem. I need to check if certain urls are working and returning a correct response. I want to use python requests for this. However the urls have a redirect in it if the device or geo is incorrect and we need to check a lot of urls for mobile sites and multiple geo's.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to work through a VPN with Python requests?</p>
  
  <p>Edit:
  I forgot to mention, this is for a ubuntu 14.04 server. So not a home pc. On my laptop I use HideMyAss and IpVanish but I want to run a cron job on my server to check it automatically. I don't need to hide any information so I can use a proxy as well.</p>
