Everythings unavailable due to regional restrictions

yo this is actually driving me insane...im trying to watch anime and literally every show i wanna watch is unavailable due to regional restrictions like bruh its 2026 why is this still a thing. So i tried to watch the new season of my favorite show last night and got hit with that stupid message again... its on the platform IN JAPAN but not here?? make it make sense fr. like the internet is supposed to be global but apparently not. even worse with gaming... wanted to play this sick japanese game that dropped but nope region locked on steam. my friend in tokyo is already level 50 and im in arizona sitting here looking at "this content is unavailable in your region" like a clown…tried using different dns servers but still getting unavailable due to regional restrictions on everything... even youtube videos sometimes?? imagine blocking youtube videos by country in 2026 lmaooo. the stupidest part is when its an AMERICAN show thats available everywhere except america... like what?? or when a game is available in europe but not in the US even though we speak the same language. whats even the point of regional restrictions anymore. its not like physical media where you had to ship stuff... its literally just files on the internet. we got ai doing crazy stuff but still cant watch a show from another country legally smh. anyone know a vpn that would workaround and one that actually works good?? tired of seeing unavailable due to regional restrictions every time i try to enjoy something
