This is not good. Im not happy about this. Grrrrrrr. I need VPN service to watch Finnish internet TV channels here in Russia. It is what it is, I dont want to break the law because of stupid TV.

So can’t you see Finland TV??
Finnish Broadcasting Company´s programs..no. As they have this block that you can´t watch their programs from abroad. VPN allowed me to do so. Finland is very small country with no extra money so they don´t have any satellite TV channels either. Sometimes I get homesick and watching Finnish TV helped a little 🙂 There is no blocking from Russian side, my problem is because of Finnish Broadcasting Company policies.
This sounds odd, since there are so few Finnish speakers, they don’t seem to care about providing cultural incentives. But of course traditional tv is now wholly displaced by the web.
Then there is RADIO, that’s pretty hard to block.
Yes, radio works globally.
They say the block is because of copyright laws.
That’s what other state broadcasters like bbc say, and the block applies to their web channels too, though not to news or documentaries. So you will be unable to see the latest Finland soap opera.
