Wow, two posts in one day! It must be your lucky day!
So the internet stalks you via your IP address (for those who are not savvy and with it). My default Google page reads google.co.uk, and well I can't get any streaming videos that the networks back home put up. Yes, an American in England cannot watch Desperate Housewives or SNL videos because they know that I live in England and not in the USA. WTF?! They should at least give a 3 question quiz about truly American things just in case you are an American abroad. The first question should be "What is America's oldest brewery?" Any European would gladly say Anheiser Busch cause of Budweiser (America's most popular international beer) or perhaps Miller. Little do these unsuspecting foreigners know, Yuengling is the oldest American brewery, producing fine beer not available to them. It's little questions like these that would truly test your American heritage. You may be saying, "But Eileen, they can just google search it to find the answer." And to that I respond--time limit! If you don't the answer in 5 seconds, you must not be a good American and don't deserve to watch TV online. Ha!
you could use an ip spoof or a tunnel to trick them into thinking you are american
