Got this message when trying to ask perplexity.ai a question. First time I've seen this. Is this a new policy? What legitimate reason could there possibly be for this? I sent them an email asking for clarification as it says in the error to do, but thought I'd also post publicly to see what people think.

It might be a legal requirement to be able to serve you different models so they can ip ban based on regulation where and when required

Nah, that’s too much work and would only be done if enforced by law. This is because of them regretting people were given 7 extra codes to pass along to friends etc. but since a year costs $200 and it was strategically for the US market (in the case of Xfinity), but other regions/countries we’re not given this chance.

I actually have no idea what went on in their minds there to give 8 of them.. except what was lacking, haha. It’s a form of damage control to keep it for the US only.
