i remember an old Netscape that couldn't be downloaded outside of the US due to arms export restrictions! (the cryptography stuff fell into that category a tthat time...)

people would probably implement a layer of private-key crypto over their web data. then they will have to ban crypto (bet they can't wait)

we are all going to be in a heap of trouble once "households" will not be allowed to have VPNs. Only businesses. for money-making.

yes, a lot of USA sites wholesale block out "not-the-USA". much easier to follow international laws that way. sad.

oh sorry, think i got lil mixed then, my bad

it's the sites choosing to block the UK rather than have to handle the law stuff

mirrorbird (17:32:30)
it's not the UK blocking the sites

Nhoque3786 (17:29:33)
wait they blocked a tv transcript website? oooof

mirrorbird (17:27:19)
a lot of US restaurants have blocked the UK for years, oddly enough, that's because of the GDPR laws from 2019 or so

WP and itch.io not blocked here. i found that a TV transcripts site was blocked, annoying as i wanted to read a script!
