Re-launch your company as a blockchain DAO then leave the country. What kind of retarded legal system facilitates this BS? Why would anyone want to live in such place?

Anyone who has any self-respect and has had to work hard for their money would never consider taking any of this crap.

Or if you really like your country (I.e. the land and its people), you can shut down your business and join the communist revolution. With the current anti-competitive climate, it's probably only a few years away. Just wait for Gen-Z to receive a decade or so of persistent crony-capitalist beatings and you'll be able to find enough disgruntled comrades to help you fix your situation.

Is this a legitimate solution, assuming leaving the country is viable? Can you give an example of a company sued by a patent troll that left/DAO'd and is now successful with the same product, unhurt by the troll?
I don't know any but it should be possible in theory.

It's difficult to imagine how someone would go about suing a DAO. Who would they sue? There is no legal entity to represent a DAO, all the rules of the business are defined in the code, the participants are all in different countries and they're not necessarily owners of the DAO (the DAO is autonomous; it owns itself), DAO members don't even have any legal agreements with each other and they might even be anonymous.
