- generalizations 6y agoPretty sure that geoblocking is what you do when you don't have the cash to hire lawyers to make sure you did your compliance right.
- dorfsmay 6y agoImplementing geoblocking is trivial.
- speedgoose 6y agoRemoving the trackers too.
- dorfsmay 6y agoBut what if those trackers is what make them financially viable?
- speedgoose 6y agoThanks to the geo blocking, we know that they do not rely on this source of income from European visitors.
- dorfsmay 6y agoSo you want them to maintain two versions of their sites + testing + different cache settings, CDNs etc... because of legal requitements from countries an ocean away and people who are unlikely to visit the site anyway?
- speedgoose 6y agoIs it too much to ask?
- dorfsmay 6y agoYes. Why would they put any those resources in when it will not increase revenue? Geoblocking takes less than a day to implement and shields them from legal issues, what you are asking is several weeks of work initially + continuous maintenance work.
