If you can't comprehend that, then I welcome you ignoring me. The fact is, if someone sent you a request in german following a german copyright law expecting you to take action, you would be ill advised to do so. As others have learned the hard way, simply following the laws of a country you don't reside in can put you in even deeper trouble, as an ISP potentially losing your common carrier status. Like it or not, we aren't a One World Republic, and you're awfully short-sighted to think that USA laws are gospel to the world. You guys who blatantly misrepresent what I say are as crazy as my ex-wife, and I don't miss her either.

This is a reasonable request. The $50 per take down is not.
If I send you a DMCA and you are not in the US you can simply point me to a url that has your countries legal take down process and the form I need to submit and tell me that I will need to fill that out and you will be glad to remove the link/content. But to just come back and say, "I am not in the US and don't fall under DMCA so I won't be responding to it, however, if you pay $50 per take down I'll remove it for you," is not cool. Where I grew up we called that blackmail.
