But my guess (since I haven't read the new policies) is that the regulations don't allow for such a work around. Perhaps because it seeks to protect users even when they spoof their IP or because even having the option available still leaves some vulnerability that would violate the new regulations. Again, I don't know; this is just a guess.

Plenty of news sites and online games use geo-blocking (hopefully only temporarily), so it's not impossible altogether. I don't know if it's possible for just a skin, though. Also, just a guess as well.
