> If you want me to tell you "it's OK to violate laws if I will not be punished" then nothing I say will matter. I know this attitude because I grew up in a country where many people thought that way. But if you want to do honest business and have clear conscience, yes you are still subject to local laws...
I understand how you got there, but that's not what I meant.
I mean why would I be subject to local laws of a company I have no legal entity in and have never been to? e.g I'm not subject to Sharia law, because I don't live in a country where this is the case. Is it dishonest for me not to follow this law?
There are countries where holocaust denial is illegal. Aside from the poor taste of doing so, should I obey this law despite not being in a country with this law?
My point is that if I put something up on my web server I host in my country, it is not my responsibility to understand if the content is legal in every country in the world before doing so, despite some of them maybe having laws against it. Why do you believe this becomes my responsibility if I decide to sell the content?
