Flouting law enforcement does not strike me as a good design goal. If the law wants you to stop doing something, they will make sure you stop.

Law enforcement, failed hard drive, link outage, whatever...
They are all the same == Downtime.
My point is that if you have a "server" that can be seized, you have not designed a robust system.
Imagine the FBI trying to seize Google or Amazon or Facebook (well, a lot easier in the case of facebook only because they have so few datacenters by comparison.)
