If not, how is it different to the Kim's case? Just cautious...
I suppose they could charge someone, but they would have to provide evidence of the crime and then they would have to convince a judge that the extradition was valid.

There is a big difference between that and what Kim has done. A guy running a website just puts the site up. The site is, in theory, legal where it is operated. If a citizen of Iran sought out the site and looked at the porn, in theory they sought out something that is illegal where they live. They weren't forced to look at it and the site isn't being run in Iran.

Kim, according to the allegations,actively and knowingly committed criminal activity. What he was doing is illegal where he was located (and the site originated) and where he is not being charged. He likely was also actively seeking out US users and likely paying US affiliates.
