Something is off here. This cannot be the entire story.<p>The guy is from UK and linking to some content in the US, additionally he says:<p><pre><code> the server was not based in the US </code></pre> How could he possibly be extradited to the US? I mean, I can see how US might want that, but I just cannot see how UK would go along with it.<p>Are there relevant details missing in the story? Could it happen because the content he linked to is copyrighted in the US? Anyone with insight know what is going on here?
