It's strange to me. I mean, the entire internet is based on Servers and Clients. So right off the bat, you can have a situation where a Clients local laws prohibit them from even viewing some material that is legal to view in the place the Server is located. In other words, the Client would be at fault, not the server. The server only sits there, awaiting requests. It's the client who requests.

Besides which, nothing is actually "stored" or kept with a Registrar other than an idea. What is the physical properties of a domain name? I'm not being silly, I'm seriously asking. Why does the state in which a registrar is located have any bearing whatsoever?

Oh well, glad other people are lawyers.
