There's this concept known as "dual criminality" in such situations,
when you're looking at international prosecutions (or whatever).

So, while lesé majesté - insult to the king - is a crime in thailand
(liable to get you lynched before you get prosecuted, at that) that
doesnt mean the thai authorities can do much about youtube videos ..

On the other hand, child pornography, malware, illegal sale of
prescription narcotics etc are generally criminal acts around the
world.
