I'm Aussie too. Wish we could figure out specifically which law(s) is/are getting in SE's way so that we could try to do something about them. Just writing to our politicians saying "rewrite all your competition laws so SE can do their thing!" won't get us very far. And, as usual, all the legalese goes over my head so I can't read the laws myself. Any lawyers playing this game who wouldn't mind doing some research for the excluded countries? It would really help!
