Spamhaus

 

Here in the UK, we are very frightened of US law. Our stupid government signed a deal with the US government which means that you can be extradited to the US without going to a Court in the UK.

This means that say if you are in breach of a US court order, then you can be extradited without a by your leave, despite the fact that you have done nothing wrong under UK law. Take on-line gambling sites. These are legal here and several executives from gambling companies are now languishing in US jails.

So I suspect that the outcome of the Spamhaus case will be that Spamhaus will be shut down, as they are only a small, but powerful, non-profit making organisation and can't afford to fight the case. So they'll just give up.

Sad but true.

Never underestimate the vindictiveness of US lawyers. He with the most money wins.
