Poor form from google though. Obviously that country is not high on the bug list.
Can someone explain why? Not technically but politically why this would be necessary? Sri Lankan laws? Geo restricted sale strategy?

Why does Google support consist of clueless 'product experts' who offer no support at all, ever? I've never seen a more useless support channel, it's insulting. I'd honestly rather them just say they offer no support at all, as it would save a lot of time and frustration.
You should see the Microsoft forums then. User: Hey guys I get error 2389042 when using Windows Update. Pradeep Chadurniyaad: I'm here to help you sir. Have you tried to format Windows?
If that's real, that is insane. Why buy a pixel? You have to go out of your way to develop this feature too? It's not like there is anything country specific about connecting to wifi. People had a meetings discussing this and thought it was a good idea and some developer actually coded this.
They still have a fairly clean Android. Samsung's still have Bixby and the Samsung store, and their firmware I find to be aggravating, as Samsung phones will install carrier specific apps without any option to remove them. And a used Pixel can be had rather inexpensively due steep depreciation of Android phones.

So if you ever go on holiday, its safer not to buy a google pixel? Who comes up with these dumb ideas.
Lawyers. Regulators. Politicians. Most countries are swamped with regulations that are inflexible, insist on not recognising testing/accreditation done in other countries by default, exist to provide a moat for an entrenched interest group, etc.
But I guess the small startup of google has a hard time caring about some countries.

I've heard that Pixel phone have good security. With that said, there seems to be a lot of issues cropping up lately (like the 911 fiasco) which make me a bit skeptical of the value proposition.
Not sure good security is really a winning argument here.
