Harry, a citizen of Great Britain, has uploaded to MobileRead a number of books by the British author P.G Wodehouse. The books in question are still in copyright in GB, but not the USA (where he got the files and where MobileRead has its servers).

Under this law, Harry would have lost his internet connection.
