Where else are you going to go? The EU, UK and Australia are all bad for this in various ways, having key-disclosure laws or trying to ban e2e or whatever else

Where else are you going to go? The EU, UK and Australia are all bad for this in various ways, having key-disclosure laws or trying to ban e2e or whatever else. I don’t know about you but I don’t consider China or Russia to be valid places to look for un-backdoored crypto either. It seems (to this non-American) like one of the least-worst options. Maybe we could trust a Scandinavian country or Switzerland? (Yes, I have missed out huge swathes of the world, which I mostly know little about…)

Wasn’t Crypto AG - the Swiss company that was, oops, secretly owned by the CIA and West German intelligence - established by a Swede?

  Ha, there go my two 'good' options in one fell swoop!

    Yeah, As someone who grew up in one Scandinavian country and currently lives in another, I wouldn't trust a Scandinavian country to not roll over and be a US lapdog when push comes to shove.

> Where else are you going to go? I don't know, but I'd start with getting buy-in from any interested country with an emphasis on not too much from any one. Where it's physically located is irrelevant, the issue is the clear commitment to the interests of the american state.
