Flipboard Country Block exceptions

Would anyone be so kind to articulate how to set up a Country Block exception to a news aggregator site such as Flipboard? The site uses news sources from all over the world and I'm wondering if there's a "centralized" way of making an exception rule.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

  • If you find that something pernicious isn't blocked, it's a miscategorization.  CB doesn't look at URLs though, only at IP addresses.

    Thanks for your help. I still don't grasp why one would use "From" instead of "To." Doesn't that mean traffic coming from a blocked country's IP is allowed without any other conditions? Again, I only want to be able to access news content from that country using my iOS's Flipboard app but block all other unsolicited traffic from that same country.
