    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.

    I don't get it? Doesn't Silicon Valley have like an underground bunker that hosts all the major companies internet servers? I recall seeing it on TV.
