Maybe they will say British citizens use it in foreign countries as their loophole. I don’t agree with it and I’m not a lawyer but I’m just predicting their argument.
- torium 1y agoSounds like the same argument that Russia uses to invades its neighbors. "There's Russians there, therefore..."
- BrenBarn 1y agoOkay, but that's still not 4chan's problem. A company with no nexus in the UK has no reason to care about UK law in any way, shape, or form.
- ivan_gammel 1y agoAccording to their Advertise page, UK is 7% of their audience. Their reaction looks like they care.
- frumplestlatz 1y agoThey might care about lost advertising dollars, but the UK has no jurisdiction and judgements contrary to the constitution will not be recognized by US courts. Their reaction puts on record the constitutional/legal barriers, preserves strategic optionality, and possibly preempts escalation that could still cause real headaches. It's strategic, not a sign that they actually think the UK has a case.
