I can understand that if there are countries with very small numbers of
donors you wouldn't want to give country-by-country breakdowns. But
national charities report on how much money they raise all the time without
any legal barriers, so I doubt there can be barriers to WMF reporting by
country for most countries....

come from while at the same time respecting privacy and other legal
reasons that is associated with releasing country level data.
Huh? Like Rupert, I find this comment very confusing. What specific
privacy and legal reasons are there for not providing a per-country
breakdown of donations?
