Can it just be hosted on some blockchain so that there is nobody to sue except the likes of Satoshi?

Schneir talked about putting contraband on the blockchain.

How many copies of youtube-dl and DeCSS and PlayStation 5 private keys and such need to get put onto the blockchain before the Music Industry tries to sue it out of existence?

I mean, who are they going to serve papers to? All of Nigeria, India, China, and El Salvador? It's not exactly possible to sue it out of existence.

Also, there's enough money in blockchain to buy out the music industry.
