The simplified answer is international cooperation in enforcement of intellectual property. Most countries, including Germany and the US, do have an operational treaty or agreement that each will recognize the intellectual property rights conferred by the other at some level.
Thus, if a German producer sends a notice to a US host that his stolen German content is being hosted on the US host, the US host will take that down.
