Build your dreams in a country whose government won't give a damn about enforcing it then. I can think of several where you can safely do so, and the government will just laugh it off as a waste of time if someone tried to file a suit about something like this.

Monopolists can do anything with your money including sitting on their hands. Also, supporting students and hobbyists may be noble, but education is something we all pay tax for.

Let's say I do this in Russia or Morocco or whatever.

How are they going to prevent me from doing so?
