European Parliament approves removal of geo-blocking for streaming

The European Parliament has voted in favour of the abolition of geo-blocking and related streaming restrictions. With 376 votes for, 111 against, and 107 abstentions, the Parliament will create a new regulation by 2025.

The removal of geographical blocks brings with it significant changes for the world of football. Football fans will be able to access foreign streaming services, which were previously forbidden. This increases the resources available for enjoying national championships and European competitions.

This decision by the European Parliament promises to provide broadened accessibility to international football events, offering new possibilities for audiences who want to follow various championships and competitions without geographical restrictions.
