DVDFAB was based in China, a country with little regard to anyone's laws. They make counterfeit products all the time and internet use in that country is highly regulated / restricted / censored. And yes, I am surprised the US gov't was able to shut down a server in another country.

I'm not sure the server that hosted the US site was actually in China. It was probably located here, which would be pretty easy for the government to shut down.
 
.com is controlled by the us governement

so they can seize the domain name if they want to regardless of where the company is based
