Question Copyright laws to be followed?

Hi,

From gleaning around the forum, I have figured out certain things. But would really appreciate the clarifications.
  1. If I am downloading a book, it needs to be out of copyright in my country of residence. Is the same true for upload too? If I am in India, can I upload something that is out of copyright in US or Canada, but not in India?
  2. I also saw some discussions on server location. So, can we only upload the e-books which are out of copyright in the countries where these servers are located? If so, which countries are the servers located in?
  3. If both the above points hold good, then I am restricted to uploading e-books, which are out of copyright in my country as well as in one of the server locations. Is that so?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Regards
Jaya
