Re: more money down the drain Ok I get your point on some, but it's not right. He broke a US law from another country. How can we enforce that law. It's not right that we do.
If I broke the law in some other country by going over the speed limit here how can they come and arrest me ? Then go and import me to Australia to face charges there ? They should let the Australian government deal with him. Not Us. It's not right for us to go and drag our laws into other countries. I don't know if you guys really understand why this is a sort of ground breaking case.
If the RIAA decides your from Australia and decides to press charges on you for stealing music. They can site this case as a reason to get you sent to the US. Think of other implications this can have on society. The US government becoming the world wide government soon. If you don't nip things like this in the bud you slowly lose your and the rest of the worlds freedoms.
In 10 years if a Japanese kid is caught hacking a porn site for cheap thrills are you gonna extradite him to the US to face charges ? No you would let his country deal with him. If this goes threw the lawsuits are gonna start piling up against non American citizens and lots of waste is going to accumulate.
And the government in this country is by the people for the people. This means if they hate our government they hate us as well. The government is our representatives.

Extradition from and to the US is a normal thing. It has been codified for quite some time. Various nations have mutual treaty obligations to do so.

A treaty has the same force of law as does the Constitution, or at least is supposed to. It is doubtful that you'd be extradited on misdemeanor traffic charges, but this isn't what the fellow is being changed with, eh?

It's not ground breaking. Many people think that the Internet repeals national laws, rational business practices, or the need to call their mom each week. Felonies are routinely committed by people in one location and are prosecuted for such conduct in another. The Internet is just another tool in the arsenal of a criminal. Using the Internet does not automatically provide a shield or get out of jail card for people under indictment.

That's a feature, not a bug.

The implications are stunning. US citizens may be prosecuted and subject to beheading in Saudi Arabia for producing "pornography" that in the US would be found on Sesame Street.

That already happened a long time ago. Most of the planet has abdicated defending themselves and their sovereignty, instead placing it in the hands of Washington DC. They have placed their national economies in the hands of the Federal Reserve. They have placed their best and brightest pupils in American universities, hoping that some of them return back home afterwards. They have entered into trade pacts that are quite lopsidedly in favor of the US.
All that's left for most nations is traffic regulation and their rights to wear silly hats.

Yes, and this could happen today, if the server was in a US jurisdiction.

Notice I said America, and not the current administration. Most of the planet hated us 10 years ago, and most of the planet will hate us in 10 years when the US is under new management.

Good response and i recognize the points made.
The internet doesn't provide a shield and it never should however any injustices done on the internet should be trials in their own country not ours. I think it is wrong for these things to happen at all. If the act was done from their land then they should have to foot the bill for prosecuting the guy.
