For a while I worked for a company that provided a component used by some streaming services on the server side. I never knew how common this was, and how much of it was just because of the weird position we were in, but we'd get some story like "exec at $big.firm has a child that used a VPN to get out of region content, they demand we fix it"

There were other cases like this where it was less about expending the effort to make some contract happy, and doing so to make it look like we were doing so for the sole purpose of making it appear that it was the case to specific executives. Not their team, but them, specifically.
