It doesn't make your downloading any more private.
How do they make their service "not available" to a country?
By IP address location? Which, in my understanding, is not accurate.
By terms, stating "you can't use it if you live there"?

Why do articles quoting shit like this never contextualize it?
I assume these numbers are, like they always are, a consumption = loss of buy equation, which is not a realistic calculation at all.
The article talks at length about accessibility, yet fails to point to that issue when quoting these "cost" numbers.
It's not like they're hosting any of those. It's not costing them anything. At most it should be labeled loss, but an equation makes no sense then either.
