Pretty simple: there are countries where these activities are highly illegal. I'll become a citizen of one of them instead.

As I said before: it is a defence for non-compliance if a TAN/TCN would compel you to commit a crime in a foreign country

That has nothing to do with whether you are an Australian citizen or not. If you are a resident in Austria, these laws do not allow the government to compel you to commit a crime in Austria.

But they can compel my colleagues in Australia to do it, and that is still too close to the tyranny to me.

Keep this in mind: The Australian government is still ripping children from their parents.

If software that I am involved in is in any way responsible for assisting that, in any way, I would be more than furious to say the least.

Nope, its Option #2 for me. Australia can go to hell.

How long until other countries explicitly outlaw complying with TAN/TCNs?
