I believe this refers strictly to purchased media (specifically, videos) which are not available across the border you are crossing -- when connecting to Amazon's Cloud services they will geolocate you and block your current device from downloading stuff they aren't authorized to sell you in your current location.

And I think the exception is that they won't delete cached videos, but they will stop you from accessing new ones.
