In the geopolitical game of scissor -paper-rock CBW is close enough to nuclear parity, and within the means of most on this list, as to be a practical deterent.

Re: Cpunk Havenco's Weapon Choices
Everybody has been talking about how havenco can deal with incursions by the UK or some other government. Isn't the solution for havenco to find a couple of other sites in other micro-nations and so make there setup redundant. Maybe some small arms as a pirate deterrent but multiply redundant sites would make it hard to taske the place down in one fell swoop. If there where 20 havenco sites then suddenly to shut them down you have to invade twenty small but soverign nations, it would get harder to sell each time. I mean have anybody approached monaco about setting up a data haven, very small, maybe they would run with the idea and there a recognised nation. There is also about 100 of these micronations around the world and the whole datahaven idea will make money so ... Jason
