Work from "anywhere" can be problematic because of timing, data egress/storage laws, etc If I work for a US company that does DoD contracting, for example, I can't work "from" Belarus I could work anywhere in the US Some companies have national, state, or local incentives to hire "local" (or "domestic") ... even if those workers are remote, because they're supposed to be helping the "local" economy (be it Macon GA, Iceland, Hawaii, etc) There may be other concerns about having workers connecting "from anywhere" due to non-competes, same-named-but-different businesses in those other locations, tax regulations, etc
