In this particular case, the forum is UK-based ("HEXUS is a UK-based technology reporting and reviews website founded by David Ross in 2000")

In other non-UK-based cases, geo-blocking is the answer being used by some people.

Per https://geoblockthe.uk/, they state:

"Luckily OFCOM (the UK Government department responsible for 'enforcement' of these new rules) have confirmed that blocking people in the UK from accessing your website is a perfectly legal and acceptable way to comply with the law.".
