What if upvoting your comments was also made illegal in your country? Should we somehow guess that and stop?

    Are we really discussing whether someone should be held accountable for the actions of others? Like, I create an account for you without your knowledge and I send you to jail? Sounds like a useful app, but scary in the wrong hands.

  Your stupid analogy aside, you can't expect to avoid consequences because you were operating without a knowledge of the law. Stand in front of a judge and ask him if you should have guessed that X was illegal and see how far that gets you.

    "you can't expect to avoid consequences because you were operating without a knowledge of the law" Are you serious? I can't expect to avoid consequences for the crazy laws that get passed in other countries? I won't stand in front of any judges of your backwards country, I have enough with my own.

      Transactions are subject to the laws governing all parties, your convenience is not the issue.
