If you're one of those people who think I have way too much free time to maintain this site, you ain't seen nothing yet. Apparently someone has created their own internet nation complete with passports and other things, and that nation is going to get "blown up with the push of a button" in September. Performance art taken to a new level. Apparently, Lizbekistan is a huge hit. Time to collect taxes, and maybe see what happens when a country IPO's, eh?
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
