        So I can post something illegal in Germany on the Internet and you think that I should be extradited?

            Ok sure. A Government can do whatever it wants in collaboration with another government. regardless of laws, rights, morality, or anything that can be enforced via violence. But I don’t really see that as a “gotcha” or something that you should bring up in normal conversation.

                So let me ask you directly. Am I, as a US Citizen, living in the US, and currently in the US, subject to German Laws? To be clear I understand that extradiction treaty’s exist. But that only applies if I break German Law, while I’m in Germany, not in any other situation.

      Realize? Yes. Holding the thinnest shred of hope for some forgotten treaty agreement? Also yes.

      I’d also settle for any country telling him to fuck right off with any of his business if he continues to be a bag of shit. That might also work.

        That’s probably what will end up happening. But how? Is the EU going to ban Twitter traffic like China does?
