I see this as a responsibility of a vendor and not PayPal. An example is an online store which only accepts payments from the UK so when I was on holiday I was unable to use that site. I had to use a VPN to be able to buy the product and deliver to my house in the UK.

I can understand a website blocking users from other locations or VPN users but for PayPal to do it seems unnecessary and a way to hurt genuine users.
