Not a bad idea for any company in any country, the way laws surrounding tech are going.

Not trolling... if they outlaw encryption, as most governments want to do, it will require creative org structures.

Australian checking in - and I'm not trolling either: I can just as easily read that 10-point list off for Australia.

Which companies were taken over illegally by organized groups in Australia?

Because the OP's list was likely referring to a very different reality than what you imagine: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2008/jun/24/russia.interna...

That kind of stuff does happen in Australia too, it's not just widely known or reported on.

A good friend - (now-ex) business owner - several years ago had her company taken from her at gun point. With nothing to be done about it ("or else") by people who the police won't fk with.

Ermm, you may wanna pay more attention to the companies being granted native-title claims on the mineral-rich chunks of land all over the country ..
