Then there is the fact you are stealing content, and silly little registrars, and hosting companies.

Silly little laws are not needed...
Let's be clear here what I mean.

There's certain laws that are universally accepted as being good that relate here. For instance, theft is wrong. Stealing somebody's content, abusing their copyright, for sure all wrong. I think pretty much every country can agree on that, or should.

However, the USA makes laws like say for instance 2257, that the rest of the World sees as being clownish. Sure, if you want to sell content to Americans you'll have to respect it, but if you want to run a paysite in the EU, maybe not so much.

When people start talking about legislation to "protect" people from free porn, it just comes across as silly.
