So, other than some thuggish regime blocking free political speech the only reason an IP would be blocked by region would be to protect a copyright?
COuld a poorly designed and/or implemented spam filter cause this as well? I have seen lists of countries that may be blocked in filters - based on a presumption of unusually high rates of spam - I think they were in filters designed for children where the children would be unlikely to have any need for access to those countries.

You will see it varies with where you are. They may be publishing a copyrighted document under licence, and someone else has the publishing rights in other countries. The same can also happen with trade marks.
