Original Note:
The commissioner did not threaten to extradite or jail US citizens, rather he outlined what can be a crime under UK law, and said he would pursue those who broke the law as stated in the article. The police do not “jail” people in the UK, the courts do. https://nypost.com/2024/08/10/media/uk-police-commissioner-threatens-to-extradite-jail-us-citizens-over-online-posts-well-come-after-you/
