Now Youtube only blocks me in the countries that don’t matter

Just kidding – I love you, Latvia!
I removed Transatlanticism by Death Cab For Cutie from my Micromix and re-uploaded it.
I was only joking when I said earlier “maybe then they will only block me in a few dozen countries instead of all of them.”
Well, here was the result.

I’ll count them for you – it’s 36 countries. I’d love to see the decision making process that came up with those countries. I can see blocking everywhere. I can see blocking a particular country (Germany gets blocked for dozens of my uploads for whatever reason). But why those countries?
Are they all connected? Some sort of copyright union? Don’t ask me to do geography – I’m American, we don’t bother with that crap.
