LOL @ OK. I see what you mean now. Yes, I should have clarified that a bit more I suppose.
Interesting to note though, is that even if one is a resident of a country to which the law does not apply, the location of the webhost is then considered to establish "location."
Which means, if I lived in Bombay and had my site hosted on a server located inside the US, and framed someone's site (no matter where they resided) I could be brought to justice under the existing US laws which were upheld by the 9th Circuit Court.
That's why my own rule of thumb is, err on the side of caution whenever possible. :)
