Geo-Blocking

Geo-blocking is a way to prevent people from accessing something online (like a website or a video) if they are in a different country. It works like this: when you try to access something on the internet, your computer sends information to another computer that tells it where you are located. If the computer that you are trying to access the information from only wants people from certain countries to access it, then it will block anyone coming from different countries.
