The Department declines to adopt this
comment. The rule is no different from
other forms of labeling requirements
imposed on foreign producers of, e.g.,
alcohol, tobacco, or food items that are
imported into the United States. In
order to sell in the U.S. market, foreign
producers must comply with U.S. laws.
This rule applies equally to any sexually
explicit material introduced into the
stream of commerce in the United States
no matter where it was produced.
Foreign producers have the option of
not complying with the rule, but then
their access to the U.S. market is justly
and lawfully prohibited.



Internet 101.
If I have material on an European server, I'm in Europe. People from the US can access my material, am I then selling to the US market?
If yes, then I have to comply with laws in every single country in the world.
If no, good for me.
