As an Australian we solved this by having root's resources swapped out and hosted on storage paid for and hosted in the UK. We have another privileged account called gg which inherits all of root's privileges. Given that the root account may be transferred in the not too distant future there is increasing interest in making gg the new root. As to why we need such a privileged account in the first place to host garden parties and cut ribbons, gg provides a supervisor process that can kill deadlocked governments and respawn them. It seems a bit silly but at least our government isn't based on VMS.
