    America is not everywhere. At least mention the country where your question applies to instead of thinking you’re the center of the internet. Before we try to find a connection between Automatic Transmission Fluid and Data Encryption Algorithm .

      They make a North American event and call it the World Series. Hence North America is the whole world. QED.

      Not to be pedantic, but neither Automatic Transmission Fluid nor Data Encryption Algorithms have any kind of jurisdiction in any country on the planet. Op provided enough context clues to understand the country they’re talking about.

      The only crime they committed is not including three words in a bracket to say “everywhere (in the US)” while still mentioning the jurisdiction of the three letter agencies in that country.

      Is it US centralism thinking? Sure. But it’s not like OP left out all the necessary info to determine where and what they were talking about. Not to mention their entire post is a joke with a clear punchline. I don’t think anyone here is too stupid to understand the use of “jurisdiction” in OPs message, or the punchline it leads to, so why are you pretending to be that way to make a point? It simply weakens your point.

      Imo there are much better places and comments to point out US exceptionalism BS than a throw away joke with enough context clues to understand it.
