That brings to mind some interesting ideas. One of the "business models" for Sealand was to be a "data haven", i.e. offer online hosting of data in a jurisdiction which didn't allow searches or seizures of data or servers. Could Tuvalu provide a similar service, possibly from within the territory of a nation which grants them a legally autonomous region?

Similarly, I wonder what would happen if Tuvalu decided its laws should not recognise copyright as a concept any more. The government could run an official "legal" file-sharing site and other countries would have to decide whether to prevent their own citizens from accessing it. I imagine these other countries would lose a lot of sympathy for the people of Tuvalu if such a site were created, though.
