When User B comments, their comment would be
stored on a server in the US.
For User A to see the comment, like User B,
they would need to connect to all servers
in all countries to fetch what data they're
allowed to see.
Since A is in France, how would the server of User B - who is in the USA - know what A is allowed to see? If no data about user A is allowed to be stored in the USA, the server in the USA can not know who A is and what they are allowed to see.

This is from the top of my head, so treat it as "probably wrong". All in all, the whole thing is a bit of a circus, really.
