Tech companies have never been our friends.
Was this ever even available to non-US accounts? Was there ever an explanation for why it was georestricted?
It's an app about ICE, why would it be available to non-US accounts? It was pawbably georestricted by the developer, just like most apps that have a geoblock.
You see why Google attempting to lock down installing whatever apps you want is a bad idea? This is an example of what will happen.
Why not just make it a website? We're not doing censoring yet, right?
