If you post something libilus under US law (which

can't expect the foundation not to respect a US court order. As a
result the fact is that under certian conditions posting something
false on wikipedia could get you into legal trouble. It is important
people understand this.
The reference to authoritarian countries is a red herring. Assumeing
you avoid local monitoring it is only US law you have to worry about
because only US law affects the foundation.
Presumably the servers in Paris, Amsterdam and Korea would pose a
problem here...

They are not database servers only squids so we are probably safe. We
could also drop them if it became a problem.
