Where You Register Your Domain Name May Land You In Jail

“Richard O’Dwyer has never been to the United States. Not once. His Internet site ran on servers in Sweden. Neither Sweden nor his home country has charged him with a crime.  So how in the world could the United States government make a case against O’Dwyer and enforce its laws against a foreign citizen like this? Because he used a .com domain name. All .com domains (among many other global top level domains or gTLDs) are registered with Versign, a US-based company.  The implications of this are huge. Can the US government exert its laws against a non-US website based on the registry used for that domain name?”
