Video blocked in youtube. Spam?
I just watched it again (in Japan). It may be that Youtube does
different blocking based on country or something else.
SNL stands for Saturday Night Live, see
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturday_Night_Live for details. It's
late-night, so it's not necessarily for kids, but it airs on broadcast
television (NBC), so it should be good enough for adults on Youtube.
I think Martin is correct that Youtube and the Saturday Night Live
Youtube Channel block some SNL videos based on country. My experience
living in Canada is that I can watch a few SNL videos from my Canadian
IP address, but for most videos, when I attempt to play them, Youtube
gives me an error message like, "The uploader has not made this video
available in your country." When I then use a VPN to pretend to be at a
USA IP address, Youtube plays the video for me without problems.
And, I watched this particular video, via VPN if I recall correctly. I
can confirm that it is not spam.
