Re: Interesting decision

The first defendant tweeted, and the second defendant re-tweeted “Everyone in the UK or EU can now pledge to Patreon in their local currency of Euros or Pounds. This will help prevent you paying extra conversion fees from your bank.” That's one reason the judge found that "they expressly solicited subscriptions from within the UK and EU." It doesn't matter that the defendants were exaggerating.
