As I said, I am not an attourney, but I think that the law of the country
where the infringement happens applies, in this case the country where the

I agree that it would be much too tedious to sue for you, if this has to
happen in the US.
But if US citizens decide to sue, you could probably hook up with them (some
sort of class action lawsuit).
