If a country had a good precedent of telling the FBI to go away and come back when they obtained a search warrant through local courts, an educated population (with a high rate of English literacy), a climate that kept datacenter cooling costs low, and a high potential for geothermal power, I think this would be the time for such a country to push hard for even stronger privacy laws and start up some locally owned cloud computing/cloud storage businesses.
It's too bad such a country isn't closer to the great circle route between New York and London, Paris, or Berlin. Being able to terminate trans-Atlantic cables on a small Atlantic island nearly for free would pretty much make it an ideal location for datacenters.
