"Distance is not an issue, though a reasonable level of stability and provision of public services would be a bonus."
This alone limits your freedoms.
Look at it this way, the more 'services' a government provides, then the more government there is. Consider how 'free' the UK or the US were 10, 20, and 50 years ago. Look into the size of their respective governments and how much the current governments 'supply' as services. With the increase of services the more restrictive the government becomes so the services are more needed. Government, when left to a general populace so easily swayed by FUD as the Brits and the Americans (which I am one) are, will always grow and become self-perpetuating.
Just like the new, more visible police presence everywhere you go. More tickets means more revenue.
This is just one way for a failing (failed) management team to try to save their collective backsides, by created more liquid worth within a dead horse.

"something that over promises and under delivers."
That sounds A LOT like AT&T. The only promise they keep is to over charge you and deliver that bill.
