  1. Re:NPR story on Sealand's "military" on Data Haven To Open For Business - Today · · Score: 1
    websensei,

    Sameer here again. Unfortunately, Sealand is plagued by people who claim to be representatives of the legitimate government of Sealand, who are, in fact, fraudsters and criminals. We appreciate the actions of the government which has detained the eight people who have been posing as Sealand officials to purchase arms from Russia, because they, in fact, are not representatives of the government of Sealand and have been acting fraudulently.

    The web site of the actual government of Sealand is at http://www.sealandgov.com/

    Thank you,

  2. Clearing up a few things on Data Haven To Open For Business - Today · · Score: 4
    Hello folks, I'm Sameer Parekh, Chairman at HavenCo. I hope you'll all read Ryan Lackey's (our CTO) post which should have cleared up a number of your questions regarding the technical feasibility of the datahaven. I'd like to clear up a few other concerns that were posted here.

    o The Principality of Sealand's actual web site is www.sealandgov.com. Any other site which claims to be the web site for the government of Sealand is making a false claim. The web site at www.fruitsofthesea.demon.co.uk was the official site until the recent HavenCo launch, at which point we moved the official site for the government of Sealand to www.sealandgov.com

    o Prince Roy is an upstanding individual and has not been involved in the shady schemes using the name of Sealand. A number of shady individuals have been forging Sealand passports and selling them. Recently a number of these shady individuals, who had been acting without the consent of the government of Sealand, have been arrested in Spain for falsifying documents. Sealand does not sell passports.

    o Our AUP isn't very clear. =( The AUP states that content illegal in the jurisdiction of the "server" is prohibited. Our AUP was written with the future plan of building datacenters in multiple jurisdictions in mind. If you, as a HavenCo customer, host your content at the HavenCo sealand datacenter, the only content regulation which applies to your content as it relates to our AUP is the Sealand prohibition on child pornography. Sealand has no regulations prohibiting any content other than child pornography.

    Thank you. I hope that clears up the questions raised here. We are all very busy dealing with the press barrage, so I apologize if there are questions that remain unanswered.
