ZERO excuse for geolocking to ever exist. we have technology beyond our wildest dreams to freely and instantly share content anywhere in the world and fucking corporate hogs can't let a single good thing exist.

I hope whomever thinks of, participates in implementing or just thinks it's a good idea to geolock shit gets gout.
