- meheleventyone 5y agoWould you have to do that or would putting the squeeze on nodes in jurisdictions you could reach be enough? Not complying comes with a cost so presumably they would ultimately be forced out or to convince their peers to fork.
- inter_netuser 5y agoextra-territorial enforcement? would you personally enjoy taking orders from China, or whoever the next global hegemon happens to be? Isn't it great to have some very remote and entirely unaccountable overlord telling you what to do, and then prosecute you criminally on a whim? Sounds like utopia.

- inter_netuser 5y agotwo wrongs dont make a right. america should stop doing that.
- meheleventyone 5y agoIt's not extra-territorial if you have agreements in place, quite a lot of countries have treaties like this. In any case I explicitly said within their jurisdiction. Meaning you'd go after the nodes in your country or with agreements in place. For example there was a news story the other day about miners maybe setting up in Texas (despite the creaking grid) they'd probably be vulnerable to enforcement of things like the DMCA.
