MODERATORS
What even are the reasons to lock content behind living in a specific part of the world? That shit is stupid.
International rates vs domestic, if I had to guess.
Also licensing deals can be country-specific
there should be a wordwide fair trade pact
Dude, trade between countries is extremely difficult and complicated. There isn't a world wide set trade for anything.
You'd think there could be, but it's just not realistic.
The gap is too wide to agree, even between europe and the US there is a radically opposite stance between pro- and anti-consumer rights.
It would be like the Trans Pacific Partnership, strengthening IP and DRM.
This is the reason.
Licensies
Licensing deals usually.
Licensing issues basically.
