The DMCA is completely irrelevant in their case, no matter what anybody claims, as they're not based in the US.
I realize that the idea that something is out of reach of US supremacy is a tough pill to swallow for some kinds of people, but come on.
- ikeboy 10y agoFirst of all, it can be relevant if the provider of the domain is subject to US laws. But right now it's relevant because TPB claimed to be DMCA-compliant. Whether or not they legally have to be compliant is not relevant to whether they are compliant.
- hansjorg 10y ago> it's relevant because TPB claimed to be DMCA-compliant What they claim is irrelevant. Do you really think the DMCA embodies some universal moral code? That's the only way what you're saying would make any sense.
- ikeboy 10y agoI'm claiming that TPB is lying. I'm not sure why that would be irrelevant.
- hansjorg 10y agoI don't care about that, I was only replying to your implicit statement that US law somehow should apply universally. I'm not sure you even understand why someone would object to this, so I don't think we need to discuss this any further.
- ikeboy 10y agoI never made such a statement, and don't believe it.
- lugg 10y agoConsidering they're not in the US they are DMCA-compliant no? Compliant as far as compliance is required for non US states..
