Unfortunately the official site for downloading the installer is blocked for me.
I only had that option and trust what I am downloading.

That wasn't your only option. Other members have suggested that you contact EnterpriseDB directly.

Note that CloudFront is just a content service by Amazon Web Services. The owner of that content, in this case EnterpriseDB, controls those "GeoRestrictions", that you are having trouble with. See

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudFront/latest/DeveloperGuide/georestrictions.html

for details.

It is possible that this restriction is on purpose and that EDB really doesn't want people from your country to download those files. It is also possible that this particular download got that restriction by mistake, either on EDB's side or on the side of the third-party GeoIP service, Amazon is using to determine the origin of your IP address. I know a few people at EDB (I did work there in the past). Asking them won't do any harm and if all of this is actually by mistake, they will be glad you asked.

It's quite possible that EDB added the restriction because OP is from a country on the US-restricted list (and that country also bans VPNs).
