** 21-Apr-2019 Seasteading -- Hiding out from World War III
Several people have asked where they could hide out from WW III, and I
completely forgot about this one, from 2016:
Vince lives in Anguilla and claims that he and his family will ride
out the war in the middle of the ocean a specially designed
solar-powered vessel with room for his family, where he can grow food,
and so forth.
If you're interested in pursuing this, just do a search
on the word "seasteading." There are lots of links.
I was reminded of this when I saw a news report last week about a
couple who built a seastead home in Thailand's exclusive economic zone
(EEZ), though not in its territorial waters. According to the story,
Thailand may even threaten them with the death penalty because the
seastead home challenges their sovereignty. However, the couple fled
before the Thai police came to arrest them.
However, the seastead the Vince Cate was talking about would not sit
in one place but would float and move around. If you're trying to
escape WW III in a seastead, I'd suggest some place far away from
land.
