Not 100% true, even if it makes sense.
If you put a 2257
excempt statement on your site, then you tell (not "admit") the images do
not fall under 2257. I think it's wise to do so, rather than leaving out the excempt statement. They can't charge you for telling "do not inspect me", but only for not being in compliance.
The same can be said about anyone outside US jurisdiction. If they put a 2257 statement on their website, explicite or not, they do not "fall under 2257". They are still outside that jurisdiction, but they put it there because of something else, for instance a requirement from host, billing company or something else. In that case it's policy, not law enforcement.
I do not think it's the statement or lack of statement that trigger an inspection. They look at the content.
