I strongly recommend that this be considered as it will keep the forum void of any influences from the gvernment and the restrictions that goes with it. If measures are not taken to liberate the forum from government interferences, we will get to the point where the government might want to halt operations that pertains to bitcointalk forum.

Although, it will be a clear case of deprivation of freedom in so many areas but when tagged with a name that violates a particular law, it will have no option but to bow to "the rule of law".
