    That’s correct, there are a few exceptions so you cannot use literally any TLD you want. What I should have said is that registering a TLD that’s a country abbreviation doesn’t imply that the registrant is in that country or has anything to with that country.

      Yes. While it does not contradict what you are saying, I think it is good to mention there are also countries that restrict their TLDs to people and companies that have something to do with that country. For example Australia requires local presence to register .au domains and Azerbajan is even stricter, allowing only residents to register .az domains.
