  • Google’s Bard chatbot is available in 180 markets, but it’s not available in Canada and Europe.
  • The company has hinted at regulatory reasons for this issue.

Google announced at its I/O developer conference that its Bard chatbot would be broadly available in 180 markets. It marks a major expansion for the platform, which saw a very limited release at first.

Canada and Europe are missing from the list of supported markets, though. Now, Google has hinted at a possible reason for these omissions in an emailed response to an Android Authority query.
