content: I could not play the links even from Canada. The first one seemed to require installing their app, and the second one gives weird message "protected content, your device needs to be verified by Google". WTF my French friends? Protected content? Wtf is that

content: I've got you Dave. A quick screencap over a VPN, and I've stuck the clip on Dailymotion (so if someone gets upset my YouTube account doesn't get screwed)This should work anywhere.

content: Geoblocking is a pain. One of my kids lives in Japan. Another in France. The one in Japan is stuck with Japanese Netflix. Neither can watch the highly rated Hard Quiz, or any other Aussie ABC TV show.I have unlimited Internet here. Upload is only 10Mbps, download is 120 Mbps. Is there anything I can do to stream the shows to my kids? How else can they bypass this geo-blocking crap without being sent to gaol?I can understand China and North Korea geoblocking because they don't want their people to know the truth. But I cannot see why western "free" countries should be geoblocking. Sure the the pommies fund the BBC, but Aussies fund the ABC. The poms and Aussies should be able too share our shows abroad without encumbrance.

content: Haha that's great! Was able to watch and understand it, being French Canadian.Actually I also saw Louis Rossman on CBC the other day too! They were talking about how Apple rips off people for repairs and how he can do the same repairs for way cheaper. I did not really watch the segment though as I was at work but noticed it on the TV.But yeah geoblocking is BS. It is not what the internet was intended for. The whole point of the internet is to be able to see things from around the world, it's BS to try to stop that.
