They do, they have data centres in Amsterdam to I believe

If your based in the UK then your primary concern is the UK's Obscene Publications Act of 1959

No matter where in the world your sites are hosted, if you publish, ( as in upload ), files from a location inside the UK then the affore mentioned act does apply to you

If you publish, ( upload ), any adult material from within the UK then I strongly recommend you spend some time digesting it.

You are misinformed. Technically, Americans can arrest people here in England but this only happens when the English courts have agreed to extradite an individual to the US. The person will be legally arrested by an American law enforcement officer when the English authorities hand over custody, which usually happens in a prison, at a police station or at the airport prior to departure.

In your case these technicalities are irrelevant. An individual can only be extradited for a charge which has an equivalent in English law. Obvious examples would be murder, rape, theft etc. England has no equivalent law to 2257, so nobody could be extradited for non-compliance.

However, I personally would never risk travelling to or through the US. I think it's just a matter of time before some poor bastard webmaster gets himself arrested getting off a plane in the US.

Scottybuzz,

I also line in the UK, and to be on the safe side, I changed my host to an Amsterdam data centre.

Job done, can't be touched.

I live outside the US and I host outside the US.

Look out everyone outside the US.. The sky is falling...

I haven't seen so much shit here, but at Least Lee and one or two others have explained that we live in the UK.. We follow UK laws not US... Well not yet .. LOL

Sorry to say you could'nt be more wrong.

So to repeat myself;

If your based in the UK then your primary concern is the UK's Obscene Publications Act of 1959

No matter where in the world your sites are hosted, if you publish, ( as in upload ), files from a location inside the UK then the affore mentioned act does apply to you

If you publish, ( upload ), any adult material from within the UK then I strongly recommend you spend some time digesting it.
