We can also become a nation of internet freedom... we can get loads of investments from people who want to move server parks to our territory to be protected from other governments and evil censors.
Could in theory lay down your own fibre to several major countries and have a underwater datacenter somewhere, taking advantage of cool water for cooling? Lots of cool engineering could be done to keep it going. Power would be a issue but it could be solved. Would be kind of cool. And since it's offshore nothing can be done right? They could cut of the internet connections, but that would have to be solved by multiple secret lines to different countries/areas and possibly via satellites? I'm just theorycrafting here :D
