US President Barack Obama has faced questions over attempts to extradite a British student accused of breaking American copyright laws.
Richard O'Dwyer, 23, set up the TVShack website which US authorities say hosted links to pirated copyrighted material.
Richard's mother Julia told Newsbeat that he had not broken any UK laws and President Obama had given a typical politician's answer in response to questions about his case.
President Obama was taking part in an online Q and A session organised by Google.
If it wasn't illegal in his country then he didn't commit a crime. Hopefully, the jury will see it this way, but regardless as an American I'm growing more and more disenfranchised with our government, and I believe I'm in the majority.
If you're reading this from another country please know that most Americans don't want to go around enforcing the US's will. Our government certainly does give us a tough name to deal with overseas.

The US should not extradite this person, surely the hosting of the illegal content is MUCH more sensible to pursue, i really hope the government back this view
