Damn I didn’t know it was 10x the cost. Crazy how a company that size still can’t handle the fees.
10x the cost of what tho? They just say “most other countries”, but tahts just spin and essentially meaningless without more data
That is surprising forthcoming from them.
Couldn’t Koreans just VPN to another country?
VPNs aren’t the solution to shitty laws, nor can you expect that to be a valid mass solution
No need. Asian countries are not blocked from using Twitch. It’s just Twitch won’t have local business in Korea now.
This’ll probably happen, anyone wanting to watch or stream on Twitch will probably just go through the Japanese servers. But Twitch isn’t that popular in Korea anyways, most of the Korea-based streamers on the platform have large foreign audiences.
What’s funny is Korean VPNs would be paying the fees to the ISPs instead, lol. ISPs still get their money.

Are you trolling? Korea has a 97% literacy rate and is in the top 20 of best educated countries in the world.
