Comment on US messageboard 4Chan mocks £520,000 fine for UK online safety breaches
Soot@hexbear.net 9 hours agoSure, why not? The UK has no right to enforce its fines, but 4chan probably does have the right to seek remedy for civil damages like dealing with this.

The UK has every right as long as the site is accessible there.

A man is nude in a designated nude beach in France. A man in England with a good telescope views this nude Frenchman. Is the Frenchman in violation of England’s laws against nudity because he can be seen from England?
The answer is, “Of course not”, and the reason why is a large army with the words, ‘Armee de Terre’ on their uniforms. The only laws are enforceable ones, and if you try to enforce your laws on another country without their say-so, that tends to be what they call a ‘casus belli’.
