But this is the internet, not TV. Those rules don't apply. There's usually two reasons why content is restricted on the net: one, the content is bought in and the broadcaster only has the rights to show it in a particular region, or two, it's their own content that they want to be able to sell abroad, and obviously it being freely available on the internet would get in the way of that. I'm pretty sure the latter is the case here.
I'm pretty sure it's because The Daily Show is aired on regular TV in the UK (Channel 4 IIRC). So the contract does not allowed them to stream the episodes online.

They work fine from here.
