Should every country have their own national CA certs?

Question

We have so many regulations that force companies to store their customers&rsquo; data within the country, which makes sense from a perspective of privacy and security.How do you feel about having a national CA certificate in every country?How would someone feel living in authoritarian governments, knowing that the government can easily intercept and read many things?How would a country feel that all the data of its people can be decrypted by another company? (most of the CAs are in the USA)

Some already do. Take a look at your preferred trust store.

This is not how PKI, as currently implemented, works.
