MEPs to propose ending geo-blocking of films and series in the EU (twitter.com)

Yesterday, the traditionally highly conservative legal affairs committee voted to end geo-blocking of films and series in some limited contexts. It's a tectonic shift from the previous position of the legal affairs committee, and comes ahead of today's vote in the more progressive Internal Market & Consumer protection, where MEPs will call for a gradual abolition of geo-blocking.

Also agree.

The price hikes happen anyway, so it's not really a credible threat.

Glad the EU seems to be mostly sane on these matters.
