LN nodes need to be active all the time or you lose your money, right? I doubt anyone in these types of countries would risk there - either losing their money or keep a detectable node active all the time. Furthermore, if they're not gifted coins, they'd have to convert from $LOCALCURRENCY to Bitcoin (at the very least for bootstrapping), and I don't see how that conversion could be made secretly given the control these governments have.
