RE: The Current State of Seasteading: Building Permanent Oceanic Colonies
Blue Seed plans to anchor just 12 miles off the West coast. I've never heard of piracy occurring that close to the mainland. It is exactly far enough to escape certain laws however.
isn't .Gov control/jurisdiction like 50? mi. offshore ?
There are different limits with different associated legal nuances to them. I think you need to go 200 miles out to escape US jurisdiction entirely.
I think you need to leave the planet to escape US jurisdiction entirely :)
Indeed, I was confused when I first wrote 150 mi. (Then changed to 50 mi.) then i was like OH yeah (IDK!) , is a clusterfuck/stop researching jurisdiction limits !, (years ago)
