If both the website and the administrators are outside the EU, then whether they fulfil the requirements laid in European law is irrelevant. Even if they go against European law, they wouldn't be prosecuted for that. European law applies in Europe, not abroad.
Technically, I imagine they could be liable to extradition, but that would be extremely unlikely. Even ignoring all the legal and political requirements involving a citizen's extradition, no judge in any EU member state is ever going to request extradition of a forum's administrators simply because they refused to delete someone's posts in a forum. That's a lot of work and something they only do for serious crimes.

Bahh!
It is not true, but I won't argue any more about it. If they slap you with a lawsuit later, don't say I did not warn them.
All I am saying is for GD to ask an European lawyer. You might find out that the law still applies anyway.
Anyway, I am unsubscribing from this thread now.
