Fastmail should relocate to Canada. Just throwing suggestions out there.
- stephen_g 8y agoI didn't think Canada was doing much better than us (Australia) with these kind of crazy, over-reaching laws. You'd probably have to find somewhere in Europe.
- schappim 8y agoSwitzerland might be better as not part of five eyes.
- qwerty456127 8y agoSwitzerland probably is too expensive.
- pgeorgi 8y agoNot part of any "X eyes" arrangement, but at least some parties within Switzerland are strongly engaged in partnering with foreign secret services, apparently without any consequences by the Swiss state: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crypto_AG#Compromised_machines https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crypto_AG#Compromised_machines
- brongondwana 8y agoDamn, I just lost $100. Thanks. We had a bet on how long it would take for somebody to say "just relocate your entire company and all your staff's lives to another jurisdiction".

- brongondwana 8y agoI dunno, I stepped out of the office at 5:45pm to head home and got drenched. 4 seasons in 1 day and all that.
- FuckOffNeemo 8y agoWe had three seasons today. And the rainfall of an entire season this afternoon. Neemo of Brisbane.
- rswail 8y agoAh Melbourne in the "between spring and summer"... the storms recently have been impressive. But next week we enter the Xmas slumber and hot weather...
- kortilla 8y agoMaybe jammygit is on the other side of that bet... :)
- brongondwana 8y agoHey, good point. That would be a neat scam... (Not the only one who suggested the same thing though)
- hnauz 8y agoIt's the best solution. Given how mindbogglingly expensive your product is, you could try your best at least.
