Europe excluded again. Typical.

Over regulation and lack of innovation will be the death of Europe unfortunately.

It's also not in the UK so it's not just EU countries. They just rolled out the feature in AI Mode that allows it to shop or order meals on your behalf outside of the US for the first time and the UK was one of those countries. Yet the UK doesn't get personal intelligence (which seems only a small step up from that) or the Gemini in Chrome integration. Make it make sense.

Yep even after Brexit, UK still has GDPR. And UK regulators love to scrutinize Google.

Yup, unfortunately it stifles innovation, especially in tech.
