I'm having the same problem and have reported it to Kobo as a Kobo beta tester. I'm in Mississauga, a city adjacent to Toronto -- but @Petert, in Toronto, is not having the problem, and the folks at Kobo headquarters, also in Toronto, haven't been able to reproduce it.

I get around this by using a VPN (specifically, NordVPN) to pretend to be accessing from a location I chose randomly in the US, namely St. Louis.

I've passed on a link to this thread to the Kobo beta test community, which is run by Kobo staff.
