I agree in principle, but a much easier fix would be to host such code on a tor hidden service. That way the physical server can be located more or less wherever.

Then we just have to normalize the use of Tor so that banning it becomes unthinkable ...

In other words, instead of trying to change the laws, which is the whole idea of a democracy, just give up on laws altogether.

The vast majority of people don't give a shit about this, so the money being pumped by rights holders will win out.
