DMCA infringing .com domain name.

Hi!
I have a domain name with a brand in it, and my hosting recently got suspended because of embed video linking to 3rd website with copyrighted stuff.
I'm moving now to offshore hosting and I would like to know if I can keep the domain with no worries, or I should buy a .eu domain just to make sure?
I don't know if the fact that the domain is .com, makes it still connected to USA laws.

If any of you know how to solve this, I would appreciate it, thanks!

I am no expert but a .com is USA property, wherever you are located or bought it from does not matter one bit. This I do know.

But, your host is complaining, not your registrar. Just get another host. Don't go thinking offshore hosting will protect your usa domain name or that laws are less wrong in the EU.

Hope this helps.

Thanks, but I need to know more about the domain :X

I think I answered that.
However, a full answer can be found here I guess. It answers all questions regarding the DMCA.

I will say this though: If you expect or have problems hosting things in the USA, don't expect things to get better in the European Union.
If your host suspended you, you are very likely breaking your local laws... If you are thinking about taking a eu tld to remedy a DMCA problem, you need to start researching.

Nothing can truly protect the domain name in your case, except staying under the radar. If you're trying to rank in Google, then that's counterproductive.

I'd grab a different domain name.

You're confusing trademarked brand domain with on-site content...
