Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is your opinion on websites blocking visitors from specific countries (geoblocking) for personal or political reasons?English

World News@lemmy.world•Credit cards cancelled, Google accounts closed: ICC judges on life under Trump sanctionsEnglish
70·3 months agoIt’s not just cards. Many banks today require using a mobile app for online banking, and those apps require an Apple- or Google-certified device and an Apple or Google account. While it is possible to open those accounts under a false name (the apps are free so you don’t need to enter payment info), this is still an absurd amount of leverage the US has on everyday people’s activities in other countries.
