The censored one is probably Niger

UPDATE - special thanks to @dditty@lemm.ee for making a map showing the countries without access to PSN:

People don't read the TOS, you know that. I didn't read them either. If you want to say that's my fault then that's fine but I don't think it's reasonable to expect people to pay attention to something like that in this context. It's a video game. Any restrictions or conditions like this are arbitrary and unnecessary.

I don't have a Playstation, have no interest in one, and will not be creating a PSN account. I probably won't refund the game but I'm not going to keep playing it if they keep this requirement, which is a shame because I've really enjoyed my time with it. If this is the hill they want to die on then my interest will die on that hill with them.

It's not buried in a TOS. It's in a big gold/bronze highlighted area right on the purchase page.

Same concept. Anything beyond "buy this game and play it" is out of the ordinary and in my opinion unreasonable.
