Starting a tech company in the US is looking like a less and less attractive prospect. This is doubly true if the company focuses on security/privacy of its users.

As would be China, Russia, the UK, and Australia. I'm a proponent of splitting a business up in to parts like Sharman/Kazaa did. Getting out of the current DNS system using something like Namecoin would be even better.
Or you know - Russia could stop meddling in Ukrainian affairs, stop shipping arms across the border, etc.

FYI: it isn't right when we do it either.

What I said has literally nothing to do with Russia or Ukraine. I'm talking about things the U.S. Government does, even domestically.

I don't understand all the downvotes since the your comment is spot on. The US market is currently very toxic for security/privacy-related enterprises.
I'd add being a US citizen is starting is looking like a less and less attractive prospect.
