Taass, location of content delivery is a main factor for the us in determining jurisdiction, US hosting would be enough to force your hand by requiring your company's compliance - bastards lol

I'm canadian myself, but truthfully all this regulatory stuff could be a good thing, our video industry in canada is regulated by the government, it doesn't solve all the problems but at least you have a more level playing field, know the score, and can subsequently stay within bounds properly and do legit business. Might not be a bad thing for the us to start cleaning up what is available for free and forcing some sort of system with rudimentary regulations for net businesses before we drown in a mountain of fraud, lost consumer confidence, etc etc.

cheers
