And yet your other comment agrees with my point.
I think the context that you and the original commenter missed is
What do you think that means in the context of radar? What is radar used to measure?
It's like you just want to disagree with me because someone else downvoted me.
No? I agree with you on the radar. This other comment was simply about repeatedly stating that "the US is not the whole world." Nobody ever said that it was or implied some kind of US-centric worldview/behavior. The other commenter merely stated who the regulatory body is who would be involved in yelling at you for turning on the radar equivalent of a fog horn if you were in the US, probably because those are the laws and regulations that they're familiar with.
Near something important? Yeah, you're most likely getting a hasty visit from the local MPs. But outside of those areas, you're going to get chewed out by a government branch like the FCC in the US or the ANFR in France.
But saying that isn't me saying that "France is the whole world" or something. I just happen to know what part of the French government is involved in regulating radio frequencies in the country.
