Can anyone confirm VPN's works for signup?

The sign-up itself worked. I've not gotten access yet.

Yes. I used one from Italy to get in the waitlist. Don't know how the rest will unfold.

If anybody comes across this. I started seeing "not supported in your country" after two days of use.

I signed up via Mullvad VPN (picked a UK location) about an hour after this story was posted. Just got access 10 minutes ago (3 hours later).

After getting access: You do need to have a US/UK IP to use it but they don't seem to use any VPN detection heuristics - which would be trivial for them since I'm signed in to them using multiple private/work accounts on multiple machines without VPN.
