Imagine all the streaming!
Why is the EU still allowing geoblocking for series, movies and football?
This quote is from @ilumium at @edri
He sees geoblocking as “purely a leftover from ancient copyright rules and an attempt for the companies to slice up and optimise revenues across different jurisdictions.”

@rafa_font@mastodon.online @ilumium@eupolicy.social @edri@eupolicy.social Because industry nepobabies like Miu Miu's daughter and Scandi bro hacks like Östlund keep lobbying national politicians and MEPs for #geoblocking ? "without geoblocking, there would be fewer European films and big English-language movies could dominate the market." They already do, Ms. Pochon. because nobody can produce anything for the 450 million spectators in the EU because of your stupid corporatist gatekeeping bullshit geoblocking. https://eupolicy.social/@Veza85UE/111574381900505708
