In both cases, a person/company performed acts that are 100% legal in the jurisdiction of the country they reside in. And in both cases they were subject to penalties (civil or criminal) by American laws due to the strong-arming of corporate interests. Let me phrase my original question differently -- if the Russian government decided that the iTunes music store was violating Russian copyright laws by selling music (since they don't pay into the Russian copyright system and ASCAP and BMI don't deal with Russian artists), and then they tried to pressure MC/Visa to stop accepting orders from iTunes -- would you feel any different? -- Victor "I'm against animal testing.
