"However, since their servers are no longer hosted in the US or the EU, they're no longer protected by US or EU laws! So congratulations, Clipperz!"
If you read the post, it seems pretty clear that they wanted to not be subject to EU laws either:
> Joyent, our previous hosting provider, has a safe harbor agreement in place with EU authorities which can intervene on Clipperz servers as if they were physically located in the EU. Or Joyent could be forced by a FISC order to hand over data, keys or fiddle with our code. Or US authorities can just cancel Clipperz from DNS registries or simply seize its TLD (read this Wired article).
