Most people are not behind proxies and would not know how to set one up even if they wanted to though.

Yup, but 'most' people don't troll either. Your average /b denizen who does, on the other hand, is probably quite capable.

Been reading this and do wonder what will happen to a volvo forum i stumbled across that after doing some digging have found out its run by a remote proxy server in the usa.

What could be done about them because they seem to think the law does not apply to them ?

Are you sure they're just not paying for a hosting company based in the USA? My hosting company is in the USA.

hmm, they use Domains by Proxy.

Odd choice of domain service by a car forum.

You do have to wonder why they seem to want to hide there details they are above the law i guess
