A well response but possibly a useless one. I could not put this in words like you did but I believe, this process we are going through is not only US related.
It is by no means limited to the US, but various sources (such as wikileaks cables) make it clear that it is mostly the US government pushing for such draconian measures worldwide. So moving your business away from there to make it clear that you don't agree is a good thing.
You might find step 4. a bit difficult, finding a "non-US controlled country" isn't easy these days, and I'm not sure I'd like to live there.
Much as I like my country (Uruguay), I know we'd cave in faster than New Zealand did with Kim Dotcom.
China might not be US-controlled, but they have their own issues. And a smaller country means it's probably going to be bullied by the US. Maybe Switzerland? (that does sound like a nice place to live :) ).
How about Iceland? At least this web hosting company http://www.orangewebsite.com/ is touting "better level of privacy and lower censorship" as a selling point. (Although, I note it itself is using .com) Anyway, I think it won't be long until some countries or territories will wisen-up to create internet freedom friendly jurisdictions as a competitive advantage to lure tech capital and talent away from the increasingly hostile US with its IP and military industrial complex weapons of wealth destruction.
What about the good old Swiss? Probably one of the strongest tech industries on the planet and (apart from banks doing biz in the good ol' US of A) rather uninterested in listening to other govt's.
Bankers have more power and influence in Switzerland than in the US. UBS handed Phil Gramm a vice chair position. They've bought into Casino Capitalism hook, line, and sinker.
