That fails to explain why you aren&#x27;t allowed to watch in the UK. This private&#x2F;public thing is weird. It profits, to help fund the BBC. Part of those profits (what, $10 or so?) should go towards not fire-walling the UK from the content their channel produces to fund their channel.<p>Edit: I know proxies are not for your casual user, but will we ever have acceptance of the fact that fire-walling content is about the easiest thing to get around, and maybe (just maybe) that money could be less wasteful elsewhere?
