Just because you host, bill and live abroad does not mean your in trouble. You would first have to deny the USA access to your records. Then they would have to issue a warrant. Then they would have to negotiate with the government that controls the country you are in, bill in and host in... MAYBE they will assist the USA on such a bull shit matter. Maybe not.

There are plenty of countries that will not extradite people for rape and murder, they would laugh hysterically at the US request to do so over documents that may not even be illegal.

The bottom line is this. The porn industry will evolve over this and the smart hosting, billing and domain registrars who are not already overseas, will set up there to avoid this bullshit.

It's time for another step in porn evolution... :thumbsup Bring it on.

This is the kind of stuff I like to hear:thumbsup

How I can I?
Tracking getting the proper documents from all content brokers and sponsors (I'm not even sure if they'll find the documents for those content on their banners, HPA, FPA, etc.) I have on my servers is pretty much unthinkable and deleting pages after pages would most likely get my domains blacklisted.... :(

I agree with Dirty White Boy - also...

unless you are a really big player or blatantly promoting and/or distributing underage content, the U.S. isnt going to bother figuring out whether a US citizen owns an offshore company with an offshore bank and offshore hosting.

I'm thinking about it for the future just for reasons of privacy and not wanting to deal with technicalities & the feds. I dont deal with anything illegal and Im not trying to get out of income taxes.

If almost every major US based multinational company has an offshore component that lets it do financial and business matters in a different way than they would be allowed to in the states, why cant webmasters?

See where it says US

As in United States

Like yea know, United States of Crapmerica?



For anyone in the USA it doesnt matter where they send a server too or where it is hosted, IF THEY LIVE IN THE USA then they are affected by the law regardless of where the server/hosting company is at. If they live out of America but USE an American coproration to host their adult their site must still be compliant.

Just one correction -- a person outside the US, of non-US citizenship, can host a non-2257-compliant site on a US server. ISPs and service providers are exempt from the 2257 compliance requirements, so they're not responsible for sites owned by anyone, US citizens or not. The only one responsible is the actual owner of the site.
