So if Uzbekistan decides to ban any content including camels wearing pink ribbons the rest of the planet needs to geoblock that content to accommodate their dumb bullshit?
Right, but they would need to prevent the entire planet from using VPNs to ensure that they aren’t Uzbeks trying to illicitly access this camel content.
But, free and open access is a core principle of the internet.

Thank you, corrected :)
This is a specific problem with stuff from network television. Won’t stop their algorithm from pushing it to you though.
Sports clips especially have a lot of restrictions.
People still need to follow their local laws.
Those people are the people in those countries, not everyone else.
Yes and that’s why content is geoblocked where applicable.

Wha? It would be geoblocked in Uzbekistan, not anywhere else.

I don’t know what you’re talking about, that’s not what is happening.
Maybe that’s why Google is saying you need to disable it…. Yeesh dude. They want to know the country of origin so they can provide the right data.
And? What does that change.
You understand that you already pay for it, yeah? So parties have their own obligations and protections.
It’s free to “access” but servers and everything in between cost money and have to follow local laws.
You just saying that, shows you have no concept of how the internet works. It’s not even free lmfao.
lmfao yea I totally remember paying to access geocities back in the day. …
Theb we must ban the Internet. Depictions of rape and torture should stay banned.
Licensing stuff properly is frustrating though. And not always practical.
There are (very low) limits to what’s sensible, but some censorship can be good.
