Josh regularly gets user info demands from New Zealand police, UK courts, and censorship agencies from France, Germany, and Russia. (The ones I can remember off hand, probably more.) The response is always "KF is a US-legal website subject to US laws, fuck off".
Which makes for epic email postings, but the flip side is he does comply with US court orders and certain agency requests. Fedposters have been handed over to the FBI, last-connected IP addresses included, because they're one of the few agencies that can cause KF trouble.
Josh has said multiple times the reason he doesn't move his company or site is because the US, shit as it is, still has better free speech laws than other countries. Which is why he was asking, if someone came for Poast's data (and they will eventually), is it residing under US law, or Canadian, or both? What if an EU country sends a demand?
