Is it illegal to access internet content that is geographically IP restricted using a proxy and encrypted VPNs?

More and more, internet content is restricted by geographical IP detection (ability to associate a net user's IP address with the country is based in for instance). This fairly robust technology and there are vendors of such geoIP targeting software that boast 99.5% accuracy. Now if your home country's online TV programs are not licensed to their online broadcaster with "world" broadcasting rights (which they are rarely), the only way is to pause as a user located somewhere else than you really are.

Current Internet protocols were not made to effect these types of country restrictions (it was once called the "World Wide Web" after all) and they therefore allow this sort of bypassing using a proxy and VPN (virtual private network encrypted tunneling). More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
