    The internet is, by nature, problematic in terms of legal compliance because it is not wholly under the jurisdiction of any singular country.

    You can go after hardware physically located within your own jurisdiction, and you can go after operators under your jurisdiction. But if you start going after folks/hardware outside of that, you’re rightfully going to be told to fuck off. (Which is why IP holders burn so much money on anti-piracy lobbying and get practically nowhere)

    Its the same reason encryption bans are laughably idiotic.
