Just out of curiosity, with such a short list of countries you don't hire in, why do countries like Mexico, Italy, Sweden, and Spain make it on the same list as North Korea?

I never understand the "same list as" thing. All countries appear on a list of all countries. North Korea appears on the same list as Japan if you make a list of East Asian countries.

It's probably related to tax or other regulatory/legal issues with hiring contractors across borders.

Sure but the list of all countries is quite a bit longer; the list in the FAQ is a much narrower category than that.

If they were able to figure out legal issues in the other hundred plus countries, I was wondering what's so particularly challenging about these, that's all.

Looks like Automattic has more employees than Gitlab and they're all remote?

Are there previsions regarding hiring people in Brazil?
Re:Ask HN: Who is hiring? (May 2020) by Topgamer7 on Saturday May 02, 2020 @09:40PM (#23056233)
It says right on that FAQ page they aren't hiring people in Brazil
