I earn a little spare cash as an English tutor over the Internet. My student is a little girl in Russia. During today's lesson she asked me if YouTube isn't working my country either. She said that people are trying to make RuTube to replace it.
I can't explain to her why it doesn't work for her but works for me. Either I must lie or break the law.
There are proxies and VPNs. My student is a little girl who innocently asked if YouTube is not working in my country either. It is this that is depressing.
