US citizens are not subject to foreign laws unless they've done something that makes them subject to the jurisdiction of that foreign country. What you are suggesting would be like if the US made eating bratwurst a felony then tried to extradite everyone in Germany to the US to face charges. It should be clear that the very fucking concept is retarded.
The info regarding the US federal law you linked is also inapplicable. Nobody knows what that means, nobody has ever attempted to enforce it, and it is unenforceable. What that law says is that you can't argue with someone on the Internet without disclosing your RL identity. Every person on this site, and on every other US Internet forum site who has ever called someone else a cumstain or worse, is guilty of violating that "law". It's been previously discussed on this site, the bottom line is, don't worry about it.
US civil law involving violation of privacy may apply in a case where one girl gave one guy nude photos and he posted them on the Internet. But that would depend on the facts and circumstances of each case, and would also vary by state, and would not involve federal law.
Intentional infliction of emotional distress and violation of privacy torts are civil, not criminal - the most anyone could try and do is sue for money damages, or to get the photos taken down. Such a suit would not be successful, as in the case of Katie, where the girl widely distributed her own photos, then they were also posted on various other sites. The cost of such a suit would be huge, would involve multi-state litigation, and would take a very long time to resolve.
Note that trying to keep private fuck films off the Internet didn't work very well for Pamela Anderson and Paris Hilton (although I admit, a celebrity will have less rights regarding violation of privacy than a private individual).
As I've stated, I wouldn't have allowed the pics if I was concerned about law enforcement or other liability in any way. You shouldn't either, and might be better off spending your time pursuing education rather than such retarded and baseless legal theories.
Posting nude pics of ex-girlfriends and the legal ramification
this could get interesting. My main question is this: If someone gives you nude pictures of themselves privately is it a crime to then circulate them publically? LFG please answer if you know!
