SOPA may be dead, but the drive to kill virtual mosquitoes with virtual missiles is still alive.

The United States only has control over residents of the United States, your Argentinian site is fine.

The quality of the movies were terrible though..

Wrong.
Any websites that knowingly provide services to people in America fall under United States law. Now, I've never heard of Taringa, so it may be safe; but sites hosted in Britain that are used by many Americans must follow American code.

America is more Britain than Britain is more America.
But then again:
Website's hosted in America which break British laws can be viewed by Brit's with no penalty.

If the site is hosted offshore but people who own the site live in america they can be prosecuted, otherwise America can call for an extradition but the country doesn't have to send America the person if they don't want to.
