Hi,

During the recent Winter Olympic I tried to open the videos for it offered by 
a website station. It was not possible, instead a site opened telling me that 
for whatever reasons I am not allowed access since I am not within the 
European area.

Questions:

How do they know where I possibly am?

Can that be overridden and how?

Thanks & regards
