Yeah, I’ve noticed the same thing. A couple years back, I was living in Spain and betting was super easy, but when I moved back home, suddenly half the sites I liked were blocked. Turns out, each country makes their own rules—some just want to protect people from losing too much, others care more about taxes or stopping illegal gambling. If you’re curious about how it all works in different places, you might want to check out this overview here. It breaks down the differences and even explains which countries have stricter regulations and why. Helped me figure out what to expect before I travel now.
