I'm confused to see the SPEECH Act (2010) used as a legal basis: I had thought that act was limited to foreign defamation claims—not as a general First Amendment catch-all. And the text of the law seems (IANAL!) to say that explicitly?
> "Nothing in this section shall be construed to—(1) affect the enforceability of any foreign judgment other than a foreign judgment for defamation..."
If they consider Ofcom to have no jurisdiction over them, why not just ignore Ofcom?
Why attempt to sue Ofcom in a court that Ofcom could claim has no jurisdiction over itself?
It would also be more likely to cause other businesses to adopt the same tactic, which would drown Ofcom's resources to cause further trouble.
