Germany, France, Ireland, Iceland, Italy, the Netherlands, Russia, Spain, Great Britain, Albania, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Hungary, Israel, Macedonia, Malta, Norway, Portugal, Poland, Romania, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, Ukraine, and Serbia.

However, some of the users could access this social network, so the first conclusion would be that the access depended on the Internet provider.
