Because by offering the website in the UK they are doing business in the UK legally speaking. So they have to follow UK regulations or face the fine of up to the greater of 18 million or 10% of global revenue. If they operated in a country that wouldn’t make them pay up for UK fine and had advertisers based in the a similar country then they could ignore it but that leaves only a handful of countries and basically no advertisers.

They’re not ‘offering it’s to the UK’, they’re offering it to the internet.

But I guess I’m not a lawyer.
By serving the content to an IP address from that country you are “actively doing business in that country”
Yeah I dont believe that. Do you have anything saying that’s how it works? And by who’s definition is this? Some kind of electronic trade agreement?
It’s similar to gdpr: https://gdpr.eu/companies-outside-of-europe/
But rule34 isn’t a company
