    it doesn’t matter where you’re based; if you’re operating in a country, you follow the laws of that country.

      Or you play a cat-and-mouse game with the authorities in that country as they try to block access to your servers. Depending on your moral values this might be preferable to blindly following the laws of authoritarian regimes.

      It’s really the country you’re based in that matters the most.
