Couldn't Google just rewrite their bots to not broadcast Googlebot as the useragent? Fake it as Firefox or something. I'm sure something similar to this has been argued in court but can a website on the open internet now allow itself to be indexed?

Why not leave the windows one online and VNC into it or something from the linux computer

What the hell is the point of having download/upload speeds if you can't utilize them.

Don't get me wrong. I don't like this practice. But I do not know what the technical issues are with doing this. Are there security concerns? How does it break stuff? Also, does anyone know if complaints have been filed with the CRTC or if this practice is contrary to CRTC rules?

They have geolocation software that blocks IP addresses from outside the US. A while ago I tried some free US proxies and I think they were blocked as well. I am sure there is probably other ways around them blocking people outside the US and I would be very welcome to suggestions.

Now only if it were available outside the US.
