    the word “Global” in “Global Domain Takedown” is doing a lot of heavy lifting here.

    The only domains taken down are going to be registrars that either fall in US juristiction, or voluntarily take it down. A US court order has no teeth outside of the US. I expect they are right in their response “we’re chill, we’re used to it.”. The operators are clearly not concerned about it, because at the end of the day it holds no bearing outside of the US and there are always going to be domains that don’t care about a US court order.

    This court order is going to have an uphill battle in getting non-us juristictions to want to comply as well. I expect that they will be forced to go through local courts for it, but even then it’s hit or miss whether a non-us court is going to care about a us companies damages.

      Doubly so, because the Trump Regime hasn’t exactly been building any kind of equity with the rest of the world. There’s no favors upon which they can draw anymore, especially when they’ve been actively trying to shit on and screw over virtually everyone.
