Two pieces of "random information" (a one time pad and some encrypted data) are located in two or more different countries and are combined together in a third country.
How does jurisdiction apply in this scenario?
This is a real question that has already been partly tested with the DeCSS incident. There are many creative ways to distribute "infringing material" that upset the traditional notion of legal jurisdictions.
- shinratdr 15y agoNo system is perfect, and having no generic TLDs doesn't solve every problem with IP ever. It just removes much of the ambiguity on who's jurisdiction each individual incident is. Then the US stops getting to play copyright police with the .coms. It doesn't solve this frankly convoluted scenario when you are deliberately trying to be covert and avoid detection.
