How do you "pull out" of the UK if you are not a UK company, you are a US company, hosted in the US, and proxied by Fastly. There's nothing to do? You do not need to abide by UK laws, even if your website is accessible from there.

>>sammy2+xd
The UK government does not care. The law applies no matter where you are hosted, where you are incorporated or who is proxiying you.

>You do not need to abide by UK laws, even if your website is accessible from there.

The UK government does not agree.

But its still not the UK government's decision. They don't have sovereignty over other nations, as much as they'd like to think they do.

All they can legally do is bitch and moan and order UK ISPs to block. There's no action they can legally take against Imgur.

This is a very, very dangerous game to play.

This is how employees of your business on vacation in the UK end up in jail.

Imgur recently fired all of their employees, and no longer has any actual staff. No developers, no moderators, no IT guys.

An ongoing protest over the state of Imgur has been going on since the first of this month.

So, uh, _what_ employees on vacation?
