The problem is that most 3rd world countries will just come knocking on your doors and take everything away, if the US goverment requests it.
After all, those countries wouldn't be 3rd world countries, if they had the power to resist US threats/requests.
Or they are part of the "axis of evil" (or whatever the current propaganda term is), in which case the internet connection to that country could either be cut off, or be heavily censored, if it isn't already happening.
- LekkoscPiwa 13y agoI would imagine that for example in Ukraine US may request stuff, but then the low level chief of the Police in the town where you reside would give you a hint in exchange for money. That's how it rolls there. What US is going to do about that? Bribe the Ukrainian police to bring you to their Embassy? ;-)
- ashray 13y agoThat's a good point but don't assume that the CIA/US-govt is above bribing or even threatening/blackmailing agencies in foreign countries. They do this all the time!
