Coax from the Blind Eternities

What happens with this card if I am being controlled and that player makes me cast it? Can they force me to choose an Eldrazi card from my sideboard even though they can't look at my sideboard? Assume I have no Eldrazi in exile and there's a situation where the player controlling me can make me discard specific cards from my hand.

7/13/2016 Controlling a player doesn’t allow you to look at that player’s sideboard. If an effect instructs that player to choose a card from outside the game, you can’t have that player choose any card.

Oh, ok. They should really put rulings on the cards that can actually be affected as well as the cards that cause the situation to arise.
