I still don't understand how Twitter operates in other countries. It's accessible because it's a part of the world wide web. When people use Twitter are they not reaching out to the servers located in America?

They're not accessible anymore from a jurisdiction if said jurisdiction which rules they are violating decides to change their networking policies. And because twitter likes to be accessible, twitter decided to comply with the rules eventually. You seem intentionally obtuse btw.
