I seem to have no issue purchasing goods online from stores operated in other countries.
You do so at the pleasure and convenience of duopoly of credit card payment processors (Visa and MasterCard).
And occasionally, they will withdraw that service for arbitrary and capricious reasons

Crypto stablecoins running on blockchain rails provide an alternative to that network.
I believe the duopoly is bad, but the solution to that is market regulation, not crypto.
