each government has its own silly way of doing thing..... although I don't think forcing people to buy local SIM will facilitate government snooping... Google will have to partner with a local carrier who will obviously comply with government demands.

don't even get me started on why Google Maps apps is still banned in South Korea and I can't use it to get around while I'm traveling there.... it's bloody 2018 already.... Yes, I said SOUTH Korea, as in Republic of Korea. (not North Korea, or DPRK, Demonic Peep's Republic of Korea)
