The regs say that if a non-US person choose to not follow the 22557 laws it is ILLEGAL and FORBIDDEN for them to do busniess with the in US. And if your website can be seen my someone in the US you are in fact doing business in the US.

Correction - If you make a sale to someone in the US you are doing business. The internet is an open source for viewing.
Your statement suggests that if a US citizen buys a membership to a Dutch web site not compliant with US law hosted and billed in Holland then the owner of the site is breaking the law.
The US might think it can police the world LOL.
I drove my car at 68mph today and broke the US law, will I get a ticket when I next visit the US.
