I am desperate to know what secrets this website is hiding!

@Edent Potatoes are a New World Food. We cannot allow access from the Eastern Hemisphere.

@Gorfram
Fair. Who knows what degenerate foodstuffs we'd invent?

@Edent let them keep their arcane knowledge. Master Gamgee said there are only three ways how to deal with taters

denny,

@Edent Is this because they couldn't be bothered to i18n it to say 'crisps'? 😄

@mcrocker @Edent I tried with the TOR browser a few times. I think most of Europe is 403'd.

@Edent They simply can't be arsed post- to work out what data protection laws might or might not apply, and it's less trouble just to exclude this tiny irrelevant offshore island?

Edent,
@Edent@mastodon.social avatar

@TimWardCam what GDPR derogations do you think the UK has undertaken since withdrawal?

Aren't all islands offshore?

Not everything has to be viewed through a single political lens, you know?

TimWardCam,
@TimWardCam@c.im avatar

@Edent My point. Some web site owners may not know and may not care and find it simpler just to block the UK.

Edent,
@Edent@mastodon.social avatar

@TimWardCam persecution complex much?

Give your head a wobble - not everyone is obsessed with our plight.

@Edent archive.org is my go-to for bypassing such nonsense:

Amarna,

@Edent can't access from Spain either lmao

@Amarna so what? It isn't like the Spanish eat potatoes, is it?

@Edent I don't know why it thinks I'm in Iran. My VPN is going through Iceland.

Both nations start with the same letter, so they're probably allies.

Please delete. I don't want illegal screenshots in my timeline!!!

alan,

@Edent Wow I thought it was a joke site cos it didn't even work with a US East VPN connection, but pasting the link into facebook got a thumbnail and some clues.
Then I tried and random VPN endpoint and the site let me in!

Edent,
@Edent@mastodon.social avatar

@alan remember, only hackers use tools like VPNs!!!

riewarden,

@Edent this is revenge for brits taking the spices and never using them. We are forbidden to potato

Edent,
@Edent@mastodon.social avatar

@riewarden
What do you mean we don't use spices? Haven't you ever tried a Greggs' Sausage Roll? Muy caliente!

quixoticgeek,
@quixoticgeek@v.st avatar

@Edent apparently the Dutch are not allowed this forbid knowledge either...

dumbledope,

@Edent
It works OK in France.

I guess calling chips (UK English) 403 fries would be too much of a mouthful

purp,
@purp@mastodon.social avatar

@dumbledope Makes sense ... French fries. @Edent

samueljohnson,
@samueljohnson@mstdn.social avatar

@Edent The best info is at https://cipotato.org. And none of it is secret.

Edent,
@Edent@mastodon.social avatar

@samueljohnson I don't trust anything on a .org domain - only .com.

samueljohnson,
@samueljohnson@mstdn.social avatar

@Edent It's an international scientific research organisation, a publicly funded not for profit, operating under UN auspices.

Edent,
@Edent@mastodon.social avatar

@samueljohnson then it should have a .com like all good Christian websites.

samueljohnson,
@samueljohnson@mstdn.social avatar

@Edent Ah, you're trolling. Sadly, the umbrella organisation might as well be a secret. https://cgiar.org

@Edent@mastodon.social avatar

@samueljohnson I don't smoke cigars - but thanks for the link 😉

@Edent “Potatoing Done Right”. Good grief.

@gilesdring you mustn't do wrong potatoing!

postman,
@postman@mas.to avatar

@Edent blocked even with a VPN , whatever can it be?

Edent,
@Edent@mastodon.social avatar

@postman the knowledge is forbidden.

justdude,
@justdude@mastodon.nl avatar

@Edent They are afraid we Dutch will eat the potatoes I am afraid. No access either

Edent,
@Edent@mastodon.social avatar

@justdude
That does sound typically Dutch, doesn't it?
