My networking knowledge may be out of date, but can't you get around region locked sites with VPNs or Tor?
I was in Turkey in July 2019. Wikipedia was blocked. I had to use Tor to access it. On installation I think I had to tick a special box that said something like "use flux capacitor bridge for blablabla countries like China and Turkey"
Though In that case, Wikipedia didn't give a fuck if you were accessing it from Tor. The government did.
I know some sites block tor/VPN access for various reasons
