It's because the US is so powerful they can take down any controversial website. See how literally all services with more than 10 users say in their terms of service "we don't want anything that might violate US law".

Isn't that just code for "don't post CSAM"?

Is that also sites operated outside the US?

Obviously no, other websites follow the laws of their business entity/where servers are hosted usually. Not sure what parent is talking about.

US will use all manner of tools to extradite foreign citizens who have never been to the US because they broke US law.

Nobody has to worry about breaking Thai laws around defaming the King because Thailand isn’t a superpower with the ability to enforce its will beyond its borders.

Everyone has to be worried about breaking US law.
