I would like to confirm something with you guys.
What is happening if a link inside an article directs to a page that is restricted for a specific country, where the specific visitor and website are belonging.
So let's say that we have the landing url A, which is restricted for visitor A (who come from country AA), but also is available for visitor B (from country BB). And when I say restricted, it's not like the page is a 404 or something like that, it just shows a message that the content is not available for this specific country AA.

As far as I understand and since the final url is normal 200 page, the link juice should pass in any case and for both (restricted and normal) visitors.
What do you think?

It doesn't matter what visitor A or visitor B sees. "Link juice" depends on what googlebot sees.

So as long as the googlebot is not blocked, the link juice will pass normally, right?
