You absolutely can be subject to copyright lawsuits in the US. DMCA is also a US law. DCMA is the part of the US government that buys military parts from private companies :P
German courts decided in favor of Quad9 on appeal, but they still had to go through a shitton of litigation to get there, which is scary. I will also point out that Germany is the reason why the US went to life+70 terms in the 90s, since they had the longest terms in the EU. Disney was able to play the EU off the US to get an extra few decades on Mickey Mouse. However, that seems only scarcely related to this lawsuit. Even if copyright terms were only a few years, we'd still have idiot companies trying to take down notorious markets through any intermediary they can yell at. And civil litigation is a horribly drawn out slog in every country. So I'm not sure what ronsor is saying other than a generic "fuck the EU" here.
