  There is a 5th option and in my opinion has the most potential for reward...
  the four items that you list require that people continue to beat their heads
  against the wall. All that will acheive is a sore hea
  
  (5) Form a new nation-cyber-state by moving AWAY from the monopoly
  and by becoming less dependent on it. With current technology, no one
  has to live in a cyberworld which they do not like. It is now easy to gather
  together a group of like-minded people and embark upon a journey in which
  you leave the judges, congress, the media and the majority of the public behind.
