What I'm getting from this is that most nations completely lack public monitoring and records keeping for seismic events.

Which is silly since pre-existing fiber optic networks are taking ambient seismic surveys all day and night by virtue of just existing and being monitored and utilized for long distance highspeed data transmission.
