"Not supported in your country"
My browser and account is set to English. The only reason it wouldn't be "supported" would be for privacy reasons. Yeah, I'm thinking I'll stay away from this.

#12"Sign in". This seems to be the future - search engines that require sign-in.
It’s just a back door to obtaining “consent” for tracking and to leverage other data about you for ads.

#14> Bard isn’t currently supported in your country. Stay tuned! When Google was a startup and even a decade in they managed to treat everyone the same. Today this has went backwards like everything else Google it seems.
"Google Bard now open to use..." in the USA only, apparently. At least it is not working north of the border yet.
Seems to also work in the UK.

I'm in South Africa and I'm able to use it. Not connected to a VPN, and I've just checked that my public IP is my static IP address.
They announced that it's now available in 180+ countries in English.

The problem of being a massive company is that everyone wants to sue you. They could want to sue you for money. Or maybe sue you because they think you are bad. Whatever the reason, when you're Google's size, you need to make sure you're compliant with every local regulation before you launch anything or someone may come after you.
Googler, opinions are my own.

#18Bard isn’t supported for this account. If you’re signed in to a Google Workspace account, your admin may not have enabled access to Bard. My vanity domain. Now off to find my admin credentials and likely discover that the workspace setting isn't available yet.
At least you won’t be disappointed when you are unable to find any mention of Bard in the admin console :)
