    Filesonic do not have servers in .hk just the IP flag is .hk - the site is located in .nl
    MU & FSO are both registered in .hk although the owners could be anywhere in the world.

    That is puzzling. Why of all places register a domain in HK? Tax evasion?

    They think it's more safe

    And yes he is right, actually there are only the IP-Flags / Proxyservers.

    MU / MV is mostly hosted on evoswitch ( Leaseweb ).

    Safe? Maybe safe from prosecution, not under the jurisdiction the U.S courts.

    .hk has no agreements with .us with copyright - so safe, cheaper tax and owners may be from there

    Actually, on the contrary, US has strong copyright influence over HK and HK likes to think of themselves as responsible government/city that abides to International copyright laws. However, this law cannot conflict with human rights issues. If there are some gray areas, human rights always take precedence. That's one of the reason why it's legal to download copyright materials for personal use but not alright for distribution (upload or sale). But the definition of "copyright" is pretty vague too. Any material that doesn't have an HK registered owner is not copyrighted.

    Btw, as a resident of HK, this is what I perceive; it may not be 100% correct.
