As nobody has answered the question in relation to the nature of copyright laws and there jurisdiction, I will have a go.
People are often under the illusion that just because you host your server in a country with weak or little copyright law, that somehow makes you immune to prosecution. It does not.
The only benefit to hosting in a foreign country, is that it will be harder for those who might want to take action, to find you. And even when they do find you, they may have to apply to court in that country, in order to obtain your information.
Lets use the US as an example. Once they have that information, they will have no problem coming after you. Obviously, it is much easier if you actually live in the US. This is especially true if your website was accessible within the US and this will likely be their main argument with regard to why you should be charged. It is the reason alot of filehosts, such as uploaded.to, have cut of access to American users.
These days, they have also been using ownership of domain names as a way of enforcing their jurisdiction. Indeed, owning a .com, .net or .org TLD could land you in trouble and it has done so in the past. It it one of the primary arguments in the case against Richard O'Dwyer, the British student facing extradition to the US for his role in tvshack.net.
Yes the laws of the country you host in are important, but it does not mean that, depending on how much of a threat the US see you as, they won't come after you. A change of TLD and a review of restrictions for US visitors are two of the best options you can do these days if you are really worried about what the future may hold in store for you.

Thank you for this awesome reply.
I have few questions in mind.
1. Why .com .net and .org are dangerous?
2. How can I get a certificate like avaxhome and softarchive to put on my website to comply with DCMA? (to avoid arrest :cough
http://links.softarchive.net/html/dmca_info.html

3. Avaxhome domain extension is .ws. Is .ws is good for piracy?
