I asked OP to update the title in another comment which they did (and appreciate) but it made this comment of mine confusing 😅. The original title didn’t have any mention of which country. It just said they were adding a paywall
The original title just said something like “BBC is now paywalled” making it sound like it applied to more than 1 of the 195 (worldometers.info recognised) countries in the world.
I’m not British but it’d be pretty alarming to hear that the BBC was adding a paywall that applied to the British if I was British
I love the US defaultism even when they’re talking about another country’s public news station
It does actually seem like it’s only the US for now
Unless I’ve misunderstood your comment

What’s the defaultism here?

Honestly this sucks balls for the US. One more credible news source made less accessible.
