The intent of proxying bits of software is to de-facto modify or deliver a modified version of it through the network, if you're trying to cheat around to avoid having to comply with the terms of the license you'll need good luck in court to convince attorneys and judges that you didn't try to do something that the license deliberately told you not to do.

This practice could be called "going against the spirit of the license", because that's exactly what you're trying to achieve, TiVO tried similar shenanigans and everyone with more than one digit IQ immediately understood what they were trying to do and hated it, also the license got patched right after.
