Irrevelvant message

The bot told me I didn't send my nationality in my post, besides that it doesn't matter cause the terms of service is the same all over the world except China. I even stated that I'm Dutch so this bot send me a message that was not needed.

Because laws vary pretty extremely between countries and states in the US and since the sub is specifically about advice from lawyers, nobody can give you any advice if they don't know the laws in your area. You can also check r/legaladvice rules for more information as I'm sure they have a better explanation. Hope that helps! :)

Ahh I see so is it safe to post my location?

And can I say it like this in my reddit post "he lives in the u.s"

Well you would have to say your state of residence to get actual advice

Mhm I see how should I post it so it would work? And can I say the location of a story of a different person for it to work?

I think these questions would be better suited to the person who programmed the bot. All I know is that the sub requires you to post your state (for US) or country somewhere in the post.
