Question: I’m guessing this blocking is all based off of IP address, can anyone confirm?

If so, does a VPN with (say) a US endpoint get around it?

They’re typically less tech savvy, older, and trend Conservative. They’re also the segment of that demographic that wants to write comments (i.e. they have stronger/more extreme beliefs)

It’s likely to be the more extreme rural Conservatives.
