Or you travel to a 3rd country that has the same law and an extradition treaty with the UK.
Or, you travel to the UK! It’s a pretty popular destination and Heathrow is a major European hub. It would be easy to get caught out.
The law may well be onerous and misguided. But looking at that site, it seems they reeeeally should do their due diligence. Not just to avoid the long arm of UK justice, but other territories too. It looks extremely dubious.
Their mitigation doesn’t make sense either. If they don’t shutdown UK accounts and those accounts use UK credit cards which continue to use the service via a VPN. It could be reasonably argued that they know they’re providing a service to a UK resident. So, they really need to do their homework.
What they’re actually complaining about is the cost of doing business. It sounds pretty amateurish.
- bpodgursky 1y agoThe entire United Kingdom is amateur hour, and the UK will stay poor and irrelevant as long as they keep blaming businesses for being grumpy about nonsensical laws.
