Both of which are bullshit. The precedent this sets is that you can be extradited to a country you have never been to over things you did on the Internet.
That's not a new precedent. That's why we have extradition treaties with numerous countries. This isn't like he happened to download a movie that was being hosted in the U.S. The bulk of his criminal operation (his servers) existed on U.S. land
expect to see US citizens being extradited for misbehaving on the Internet in the not so distant future.
It's called extradition, and it's been around for hundreds of years. Internet doesn't really change much. If the crime is substantial enough, then a country just may pursue it.
