- nickpsecurity 10y agoI've told the story many times. It can happen anywhere. It was an unscrupulous group of people in it solely for the money primarily selling to people like NSA. The target wasn't popular with anyone. Guy running it was offered some cash to sabotage the equipment of that target to help a major customer. "Happy to oblige!" My endorsement of Switzerland is about legal jurisdiction, culture that respects privacy, and stability. Well-intentioned owners won't be forced to do the kinds of things we see in America or Russia. At worst, it will be something selective with a warrant. A nice foundation to build on.
