Cross-Border Jurisdiction Enforcement

Pretty sure the EU and US have deals that allow legal actions against companies in other's jurisdiction.

Won't happen, and law doesn't quite work that way. Here's a case where an EU-based court chased a US company in Europe and won:https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/LICRA_v._Yahoo!

It's an American lawsuit against an American company under American law. Of course that doesn't apply abroad.Anyone can try filing a similar lawsuit in their local jurisdiction, but there's no guarantee that you'll win if your country's laws are different.

I'm not talking about suing in a US court. I'm talking about suing in an EU court.

Maybe this needs to start over somewhere in a civil law country (most of Europe) where suing you for something like this is almost impossible.

Check "conflict of laws" and "conflict of jurisdiction". I don't know the US legal system well enough to find it, but it happens in European countries (e.g. french judge applying US laws), so I guess it would be similar.Moreover a US judge might not care, but a French or German judge might decide he is competent (if there are good reasons to think the website is not US only).

> Not enforceable.I'm not familiar with how lawsuits work in Europe/European countrys, but in the US anyone can sue anyone for any reason at any time (with very specific, few restrictions).If it's anything like the US, as long as it's not a completely spam/bogus lawsuit then it might not be enforcable but you still have to hire a lawyer and go through that painful process.AND it sounds to me like Europe is similar to the US in that you may be sued by a state&

Lucky it's not based in the US, that's the sort of thing that gets you sued.

This guy most likely has no presence or assets in EU. So they will have no success in trying to enforce it.

Not in the US or EU. However, they can still sue you in the US and due to the broken legal system there, it will cost you decent money even if they are bound to lose from day 1.
