There also must be regulations for privacy issues in the US that might play into this. Many Amateurs aren't even a company but a private person doing it as hobby. The law is older than the net and was written when this kind of thing were only possible by big companies. A good lawyer should be able to find a solution but then of course that is expensive and therefore not really fundable by a small time amateur out there.

WTF do you know? I asked the right questions. Who are you or anybody else to try and bend the law? All that does is fuck it up for others. Give them an inch and they will take a mile. I offered 2 very good suggestions on how to handle her situation...Neither of which would cost much money.
The people who are concerned with this are US citizens and they answer to US laws. Next thing you know, you will be telling people how they can set up web servers and bank accounts in Amsterdam and legally sell hash because it is not tied to the US.
Go peddle you offshore corporation bullshit somewhere else. They way I see it, it is better to play by the rules than to piss sombody off to the point where they really put the screws to us.
