That's what everyone (MS, etc) wants to screw them for.
You're missing the obvious...

COPYRIGHT LAWS DO NOT APPLY IN SWEDEN

So therefore game companies most likely can't do anything about servers hosted there...that's all...

Host it how you want, but I'm just telling you that I witnessed the largest EQemu server get shut down due to pressure from SOE... They were reborn as Shards of Dalaya afterwards (due to not being able to use the name "Winter's Roar"). Of course they're bigger after the shutdown now...last I was on there it was over 400 people online at peak times.

But whatever...host wherever you want to host. Not looking to argue with you guys. Have a good one.
