This isn't MY opinion this is the opinion of the US government. Now can they do anything to you if you don't comply? Doubtful. Unless you come into the US. If you're using US hosting they can make the hosting company shut your sites down, but if your completely non-US then no I wouldn't worry about compliance.
Now I'll add on caveat. US the has work with other countries to bust peole dealing in CP. Now I suppose if you are not complying with 2257 you can be considered to be a suspect in dealing in CP and they could use that angle to get you busted. Depends on your home country. I doubt some country like Holland or Denmark would help the US in comething like that, but conservative countries might.

Ok for example in england we have the obscene pornography law where if you market "strong" pornographic materials( you know those german sites) then you get in trouble. Now your telling me that if a german markets those sites then the english police are going to liase with the german police and make an arrest? sorry I dont see it happening. Even if his site is in english etc. I do however see your point and seeing as no example of this to do with 2257 has yet happend.
One can not argue conclusivley either way. I do not for one second believe however that this isreali had a 2257 problem.
