If you wanted a swing in the opposite direction, Iceland has the best privacy and data laws. I get the impression their economy will increasingly reflect this.

However, it also has plenty of challenges, from population/talent size, costs, weather, etc. From a cursory look, immigration looks relatively easy if you have a job.

Costs have been the biggest worry when looking there. Not sure about bandwidth either...? IIRC the Eve Online guys had to do their server hosting in the UK for that reason.
