Connecting to BWI from Germany?

[BobPSU92]

I am flying to Germany tonight and am sitting in the Lufthansa Lounge in Newark. When I connected to their WiFi (Telekom), I could not connect to BWI. I got a Rivals page saying there was a security issue or I was trying to connect from outside the U.S.

I suspect the problem is that I was using a German WiFi network. Does this mean that I won’t be able to connect to BWI from Germany? I never had an issue before, but some new privacy laws went into effect in Germany recently. Is that the issue?

You beat me to it, Bob take a break from the board this week. When you return, we'll have a list of our members that committed Harakiri this week.

You should be fine using your phone to connect to BWI, as long as you don't use Wifi.

Thanks. I was wondering if I would be good on German cellular.

Oh, I forgot to ask, does your wife need a companion this week in your absence?

Fair hired me to manage one of the escort subsidiaries to his Gambit Enterprise. Let us know your preference in character and body build of the product and I'm sure we can deliver.

There is an ongoing problem connecting to Rivals sites from Europe. It's possible, but you have to use a VPN.

CLICK HERE for info I posted about it earlier this year.

It has something to do with Europe's strict privacy laws and many sites (including Rivals) prevent access while you are in Europe. I experienced the problem in September and Yahoo / Rivals explained the issue to me when I contacted them for help.

The Yahoo rep. also recommended using a VPN to access the Rivals page.

You are probably right that there are many sites with this issue.
But Rivals is the only site of many that I frequent that has this issue.
This is a Rivals/Yahoo issue (the rest of the Internet has figured it out), and it is pretty shitty that RIvals/Yahoo haven't done anything about it.

You can blame GDPR. Sites that can’t afford to comply block traffic from countries outside the US to limit risk/exposure.

Germany hates U.S.

I've been having this problem for the last few months. Whenever I tried to log in from home (London) I would get the error. My wife finally got me a VPN subscription so I could log on today. Sorry about the absence but hope it becomes easier to access soon.
