    reading the history of the country it sounds fascinating. It'ill be interesting to see how various governments react to this.

    It's being thoroughly /.ed at the moment, if anybody cares to wander over to www.slashdot.org ... they're going to be interviewing the CTO of Sealand, and the obvious questions are all coming up: like how can it be a data haven if your only outside connection is with Scotland.

    I prefer the idea in Cryptonomicon.
