Most of us are aware how geoblocks are one more reason people nudge towards piracy. Well, I didn’t knew that companies imposed geoblocks even on free content.
1. Posts must be related to the discussion of digital piracy
2. Don’t request invites, trade, sell, or self-promote
3. Don’t request or link to specific pirated titles, including DMs
4. Don’t submit low-quality posts, be entitled, or harass others
💰 Please help cover server costs.
Many US based websites are no longer displaying content to Europeans, since they can’t legally harvest data. Youtube, Instagram and other websites/apps playing licensed content are also increasingly disregarding countries where licenses are expensive and/or revenue is low.
I’d really look into getting a good VPN. Mullvad ($5/month) is awesome, or else Proton in the free tier (can’t pick the server but get one assigned at random, might need to restart to get one in a useful location).
Oh, you absolutely can. You can download Wireguard or OpenVPN configs for specific servers even with free tier.
On Android I use: https://github.com/schwabe/ics-openvpn
Though they don’t let you select servers in Romania and Poland. Perhaps they just forgot to update the download page.
Ah yeah, I’m in China so I need the stealth option, which doesn’t work with OpenVPN.
Oh, poor little things 🥺
Yup but that’s fine, they are full of crap anyway. :)
Free proton has USA, Japan and netherlands
And as of recently Poland and Romania:
