The censored one is probably Niger

UPDATE - special thanks to @dditty@lemm.ee for making a map showing the countries without access to PSN:

The combined estimated total population of those countries would be roughly around 4.6 to 4.7 billion people.

Right? I was too lazy to double check, but yeah, the original claim seems absurd considering it’s missing at least the top 5 most populated countries representing nearly 4 billion people.

But corporations see $$ so it’s the half of the world that isn’t important.
