We had a case when some dude was arguing against our location requirements. The listing said "the EU" and he was from Armenia or thereabouts and kept sending long emails saying that our requirement was wrong, that we should consider people from elsewhere, how good it will be for the company, etc. It was really bizarre, because he did all that before applying.

So, yeah, a can of worms. They are rare, but they sure are pungent.

why require a non-geographic location in the first place?

if political location is required for regs/visa/tax/whatever don't tie that to applicants' geographic location
