Every Time you visit a website, the website takes requests from your ISP ( Internet Service Providers ) IP. So if your IP is located in the US or Canada, it is easy for you to connect, But if your IP shows a location other than these two, the website recognizes you as a viewer from another country and automatically implements restrictions which will lead to not accessing the channel or limited access.
