Real or Imagined?

[Victor Hafichuk]

Isn't this spoof actually the way it is? Who could have dreamed it would come to something so bizarre, that the ridiculous would be the norm?

This video content, I'm told, isn't available in my country. So I'm not able to view this. Can anyone help?

[Terri Cabreros]

Yes, Paul. Same problem here (since I'm in the same country) .
Would have liked to have seen it.

Hi Paul and Terri,

I'm not sure if this helps, but it is the direct YouTube link to the video.

If the above link doesn't work, try this embedded one. It takes a few seconds to start.

Thanks Ronnie and Simon. The latest link posted by Ronnie worked.

[Simon Hall]

You'll have to teach us the tricks of the trade, Ronnie.

[Terri Cabreros]

Yes, thank you both!

[Ronnie Tanner]

You'll have to teach us the tricks of the trade, Ronnie.

In this case, Simon, I browsed through a proxy outside the U.S., then downloaded the video and re-uploaded it to Youtube. I reached out to LatmaTV to see why their video's are not viewable in the U.S. but I haven't heard back from them yet. I wouldn't think they'd intentionally set their videos like this and if they did I'm curious to know why.

[Simon Hall]

Thanks, Ronnie, for that information. I just red up on proxies, and now I understand a little more.
Have you heard back from LatmaTV yet?

[Ronnie Tanner]

Hi Simon, I did hear back from LatmaTV. Thank you for the reminder. This is what I was told:

"We received several complaints on the subject but still didn'r get to find out the reason for our vids being blocked in the US. thx anyway"

It's a a bit odd to me that they've not come to understand why it's happening, but perhaps the person responding via Facebook isn't as aware as they could be. I did ask if they considered whether or not Youtube might be responsible and I have not gotten a response yet. This is the first I've ran across a video being blocked based on geographical area.

[Simon Hall]

Thanks for the update, Ronnie.
