Geo-blocking

Here you can find out what countries are blocked.

Blocked countries

Ricardian Fabric aims to comply with global regulations and will block all countries placed on the selected sanctions list, no matter what sanctions are imposed.

The default configuration comes with Geo-blocking enabled for the following sanctions

How it works?

Geo-blocking works with the built in browser Geolocation API, the user must explicitly grant permission to access his location. The API works even in devices without GPS and the browser possibly queries Google servers to get the location estimate. This will work even if a VPN is used since it doesn't matter what the IP address of the user is.
