As ridiculous and far-fetched as it sounds, that's exactly what United States Senate Bill S-978 allows. Claiming to "amend the criminal penalty provision for criminal infringement of a copyright, and for other purposes", the text of this bill ought to scare every single American (and probably anyone who uses an American company for their web host) to death.
