So the long version of this story is that the app was released in partnership with the HBO Go / HBO Now team, and using the terms of service they used for these apps (which are only available in the US & Canada). We’ve been working with lawyers to release the app worldwide without running afoul of any local laws, and I’m keeping my fingers crossed that will get cleared this week, we just gotta make sure our terms of service are up to par… After all, we wouldn’t want to fall prey to something we made fun of this very season ;) http://www.vulture.com/2017/04/silicon-valley-recap-season-4...

Do you have a special algorithm to determine Canada/US and not Canada/US.
Their neural network localizes your submitted hotdog images. To get around the block, try showing it a Canadian hotdog.
Will it block Canadian hotdogs shot on USA soil? How about Mexican hotdogs? Asking for a friend.
Canadian hotdogs on US soil (aka "cross-dogging") and vice versus are disambiguated by shadow inclination vs timestamp to estimate latitude (outdoors) and fingerprinting microfluctuations in the power grid and resulting effects on lighting (indoors, Canada has a much larger share of hydroelectric).

GPS was considered, but rejected as insufficiently cool.

:D now, that would be an app worth investing in
Big interest from the Trump administration! (Huge interest, so big, the biggest.)
Hmmm, BRB, writing pylsur or not pylsur.
