If the content is illegal to produce in Thailand/Philippines/Indonesia/some parts of Europe does it make it "legal" that it is being used for paysites based in the US? I guess my question is, where is the content legal... in the country it was produced or in the country where it is distributed?

Can the local source of the hardcore content sic the Interpol on the global distributor?

Remember, this question is not about obscenity but the fact that hardcore porn is EXPLICITLY illegal based on the countries' laws.

Should this make us uncomfortable of buying from porn producers in countries where hardcore is illegal?
