403 Forbidden when going through Tor

[forthrin]

Trying to access Norwegian content using Tor while abroad. My effective IP is Norwegian, but I get a 403 from the host (Akamai). Do they blacklist Tor IPs, or what could be the cause?

Found similar posted issues, but posting this in case this is a unique issue. Using a version that's three days old since I'm on Homebrew (doubt that's the cause). Let me know how I can be of further help.

Can you watch this video in browsers with Tor? If I remember it correctly Tor chooses a random exit node in each connection so it may be outside Norway.

This can be forced with ExitNodes {no} in .torrc.

@dstftw Much thanks for that! It's definitely helpful.

[dstftw]

There are only 8 exit nodes from NO all of which are banned by NRK.

The eternal cat and mouse game. I suspected as much. You really need to be ahead to win at this...
