Granted, it's not necessarily a UK vs US -ism but I come across it most often on US websites.

As someone resident in the UK, I am quite sure that it is in fact a UK vs US-ism. I wouldn't know if everyone in the US uses the phrase "I could care less" but I am sure that no-one over here does. Which makes it an American turn of phrase since it is found no-where else.
