Unrestricting geo blocking iS about our being able to access products tht foreign companies want to sell us at rip off prices because they can (as stated in the Article) eg Apple, Adobe, Microsoft etc. Those companies don't manufacture their products here they just sell here.

And another example is access to digital content eg movies. Our gov't actively encourages us (by not discouraging it) to go ahead and get around foreign geo restrictions.

And Canada and NZ are also taking steps along those lines.

Good!
