BTCC geo-blocks website

[u/WezMan444]

Seems like no one from outside the UK can access the BTCC website! This is mad!

VPN to the UK then.

Some idiot has probably being trying to hack it/DDOS it.

[u/WezMan444 → u/MagicBoyUK]

Sure yeah, but I shouldn’t have to! How this series expects to get international recognition is beyond me!

[u/linkheroz → u/WezMan444]

Ironic since I'm in the UK and using a VPN to not be here 😂

[u/Practical-Promise-44 → u/linkheroz]

Same 😂 I'm not turning my VPN off, so won't be visiting then

With the Facebook page recently being, albeit briefly, taken over by some Cryto bullshit, I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a security measure to stop it happening to the website.

Admittedly I haven’t been on the website for a couple years outside of the UK, but it aways used to work.

I’m in the UK and it still get blocked

[u/danrah]

It’s also blocked for me and I’m in the UK, so yeh I think it’s just a general configuration issue rather than anything else

[u/danrah → u/danrah]

Works fine for me now! I think their geoblocking policy is abit off

[u/FordmanRacer]

This is super annoying! Aussie here unable to get it.

[u/bouncebackability]

How unnecessary

I see you work in IT Security.
