As far as I'm aware it's mostly practiced in Judaism and for some reason the USA. It is very rare in the UK and I believe most of the world

Yeah because Kellogg popularized it in his weird crusade against masturbation.

Well, there's more to the story with regards to why it remains so popular after so many years.

Yeah. Because men who had their genitals damaged do not want to tangle with the very psychologically harmful prospect of considering that they had their genitals damaged. So in the course of denial of their own damaged genitals, they damage the genitals of their sons, and the cycle repeats. Then there’s the ridiculous suggestion that young boys don’t pay enough attention to their dicks to be able to clean them if we don’t cut off pieces, and the pervasive view that “it looks better”, which is just a delightful reason to mutilate infants.
