Well the issue with this more than pastygate or the fuel duty is it's not good for British citizens as a whole. It sets a worrying precedent of them kowtowing to U.S media interests when they've already said "We don't think it's worth the time in prosecuting internally". Sure, this is a larger scale thing but it indicates that British citizens are now not only subject to laws of their own country, but also of America if they so choose. Granted they've probably bowed to the extradition demand because America has a 'special relationship' for us in terms of economy and the like, but it reinforces the belief that we're essentially puppets for America.
