It seems we have a geoblocking situation in France.
I am in the USA now in Hawaii, and this is what i get on Youtube using the link.
There is also no problem posting the video on a Greek site.
Some intellectual property rights problem in France. Perhaps somewhat similar to the problems faced in Germany until recently...
All I know is that as a private user I can use a VPN in order to view content blocked in the country I am in. In this way Youtube or Netflix thinks I am in the States when I am in Belgium so I can have access to the much richer USA content.
If the IP address of Openwhyd did not appear as french to Youtube, and appeared as anerican or greek for example we would not face problems.
Maybe the staff of ExpressVPN could give an answer. They are very helpful. This is their address : https://www.expressvpn.com/
Another VPN service is this : https://www.hidemyass.com/how-vpn-works
