Is there a “US only tech” community?

I’m also confused: is this community for worldwide news only? I’m ok with seeing stuff that only pertains to certain countries here.

It’s not even tech news, really. More like a service announcement only valid in the US.

The US is indeed part of the world. I would be fine with similar coverage if this were to happen somewhere else like Germany or Turkey.
