Ummm far from the truth... U.S. laws apply to any one or any corporation that has business dealings in the U.S. For example, significant numbers of U.S. customers, an interactive website that interacts with U.S. surfers, employees in the U.S., offices or equipment like servers in the U.S. or even assets. As well as significant business relationships in the U.S. with advertisers or vendors, etc. Or if that company ever used U.S. law to sue another company makes them eligible for U.S. jurisdiction.
There are a countless number of foreign companies that are successfully sued under U.S. Law although some times U.S. companies use international law to sue foreign companies because it makes their case stronger.
