How would a company be liable if it isn't stationed in the US nor does any business there? Asking sincerely, I don't see any way that it could be.


It could be liable in the same way copyright violators / darknet drug store owners are liable. If you live in a European country and host your torrent website there, but you host Harry Potter, Star wars and so on, they can extradite you to the U.S.


Well, it could be liable (if law says so), but it would not be enforceable.
