It is run commercially by BBC Worldwide, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the BBC, the profits made from it go back to BBC programme-makers to help fund great new BBC programmes. You can find out more about BBC Worldwide and its digital activities at www.bbcworldwide.com.
- hartror 11y agoWow that is insane, got to love politics.
- scott_karana 11y agoThat's pretty strange. If BBC Worldwide's profit flows back to the BBC proper, why wouldn't its content?? Doesn't make a lick of sense to me.

- themartorana 11y agoI was wondering out loud today if YouTube's common "This content not available for your device" was against Net Neutrality laws. Title II in the U.S. having nothing at all to do with the UK, I wonder if blocking certain devices or areas amounts to a very, very slow lane for some people and is therefore illegal. This made me have the same thought again. Can blocking the country you come from be anything but against net neutrality?
