radio.garden (and many others) got neutered in the UK courts by Sony. Offensive, short-sighted, Balkanizing decision.

I haven't bought a Sony product since the rootkit debacle. My only regret is that there's not a "boycott++" mode for the damage they did with that decision.

Add the following line to ublock origin in "My filters" & make sure the "Enable my custom filters" option box is checked to get around this:

Do tell more, I’m very curious— am I unaffected in the US? I haven’t noticed a big change in the past several years. What happened?

Can't find a good summary link. Maybe this one https://www.rpclegal.com/thinking/entertainment/court-of-app... is a good starting point.

radio.garden feels like spinning an AM radio dial late at night (which is how I discovered John Peel as a youngling). It's a lovely thing, verging on art, and should be treasured.

It seems that radio stations outside the UK cannot be listened to, can you listen to any stations outside your country?

[cobbzilla]

yes definitely, don’t even need a VPN. I can stream/listen from anywhere in the world on radio.garden

I’m sorry the UK cripples your streaming. That really sucks.
