A geographic restriction is based on geography, even if vendors implement it poorly, allowing people whose nationality is tied to a certain geographic location to escape intended limitations.

Or so I figure.

Yes, that's what you would think. I doubt, however, if that's the truth. I think it's not so much geographically restricted as home-country restricted.

Ea, I've just bought my first books at BoB, after not being able to buy them from Fictionwise due to GR. Until FW manages to implement what they say they'll implement, I doubt I'll be buying a lot of books from them. Once bitten, twice shy, shall we say. I also noticed that about 90% of the books I would like to read are restricted, as I don't like horror and most certainly not romance.
