- sofixa 2y agoIf the US Department of Justice thinks it has jurisdiction over Ukrainian torrent websites hosting links to American-produced media content, why wouldn't it have jurisdiction over American-produced planes killing people in Indonesia and Ethiopia from negligent design and manufacturing, both of which happened in the US?
- williamcotton 2y agoThere are these things called extradition treaties.
- sofixa 2y agoWhich apply to crimes committed in the country asking for extradition. E.g. Artem Vaulin didn't commit crimes in the US by running a torrent website from his home in Ukraine, yet he was extradited and sued by a court in Illinois, instead of a court in Ukraine where his alleged crimes took place. Random guys kidnapped by the CIA didn't commit crimes in the US either.
