Software Hiring: Remote, but US-only. Why?

by
I'm simply astonished by this reticence of US companies that are looking to hire software developers to look for people abroad. I've seen countless ads that say "100% Remote", but need to be US-based. Which I simply don't understand. Why do you care, if the work is fully remote, if the person is based in US or not? Please explain to me: why is this a thing? Note 1: if the person is from another country, you can simply contract them via their own company, or something similar, which for you as a company, is simply a LOT easier in all aspects. Note 2: I do understand if you have some big Intellectual Property, and therefore, you'd prefer local people. But my assumption is that very few companies are truly in this boat, and obviously, you can always sign an NDA.

I get where you're coming from! It’s weird that some US companies still limit hiring to US-based developers for remote work. A lot of it likely comes down to legal and tax reasons, plus potential time zone coordination issues. But you're right – with contracting options like through local companies, it could be much easier for everyone.
