But (1) there are Rockbox contributors who are located in the U.S. and
therefore subject to U.S. law and the jurisdiction of the U.S. courts,
and (2) there are a number of international treaties protecting

sweeping generalization about what damages may or may not apply if there
is ever a suit brought for copyright infringement.
