UK does not protect its citizens? A hair-raising revelation. I would not be surprised if this happened in Russia or any 3rd world country. Sorry but it looks as if UK had lost its independence.

In July the agency's assistant deputy director told the Guardian that ICE would now actively pursue websites similar to TVShack even if their only connection to the US was a website address ending in .com or .net.

Such suffixes are routed through Verisign, an internet infrastructure company based in Virginia, which the agency believes is sufficient to seek a US prosecution.
Kind of "evidence" Stalin's or Putin's court would use. To me it seems as the only connection to the US is that someone in the US does not like this. Human rights is a myth even in good old Europe. Ahh... This world is doomed. Orwell's "1984" slowly comes true. Those who print money order the music

BTW, from here it seems that Germany or France are much more independent from the US, at least it was obvious in Tony Blair's time.
