The problem here being these payment processors are global and none of this is illegal in the jurisdictions affected. This regional blocking, while nice, shouldn’t even need to be a “solution” to this. It’s a sledgehammer “solution” to something that was never enough of an issue for actual legislation.
Right, my point is that Visa shouldn’t care if an American is buying something that’s illegal in China, if the product is not allowed for sale in China.
They have regional pricing already, regional content bans should be easy enough.
