Duke was down for a week

Yup, my ISP contacted me and explained in a letter that according to their logs they suspect I have down/uploaded material that is in violation with US National copyright laws etc etc etc
Now, I live in Sweden. I am a Swedish citizen. ComHem is my ISP and they are a Swedish company originated from Telia which used to be owned by the Swedish Government.
In what way does US National laws apply here? Anyone?
After a few days I gave up discussing it. They even admit that they doesnt have anything that binds me legally to any misbehavior since they cant pin my designated IP to it. (Since I scramble it on that computer and it looks as I am in the Cayman Islands)
Anyway, I am back up. I called in a friend of a friend and with his help we hacked the modem and messed about in the DOCSIS so now I have a tap right into the ISP Nod.....well I dont. My neighbour does....
Sorry for going M-1 in the WOK5 game but it is all good now.
