I think he refers to the person / entity suing.

  Which means he doesn't understand how the legal process works.

    What this means is if you host a website for someone to sue you in a court of law the process instantly requires an international lawyer. They are not cheap. Pick your countries right and arguably you would be hard to sue. IANL but you should consult one when implementing this strategy.

      Nope, that's not how it works. They can simply sue you in the jurisdiction in which you live, getting a court order for you to reveal the information. Details of where it is hosted doesn't matter. Unless you don't mind serving indefinite jail time for contempt of court.

        > They can simply sue you in the jurisdiction in which you live, getting a court order for you to reveal the information. > Unless you don't mind serving indefinite jail time for contempt of court. Not how it works internationally, this looks more like a US-centric view of the world. I believe in most countries courts would not do that at all. If you want an example, look how nobody can sue Snowden in Russia.

        Well in this case they can't find out where he lives because the register won't give up his information. So yes, it is how it works.

        ...first they have to find the jurisdiction in which you live. I think the idea here is to make the processes of finding that out harder.

          ...and more expensive only to find out there isnt an extradition treaty
