      Hope you see this because listening to the nuclear reactor bit, I live in Washington State, USA. There's a river here that is the worse nuclear disaster site in the US and Amazon just got permission to do a feasibility study for 2 years to build 4 on that river. Then after those are built and running they are gonna open up to government subsidiaries or something but man the future is coming fast xD maybe the "coof numerical" in 2020 was an attempt at goblinization that got out 😅

    As I understand it - "the embassy" is the mission, and the mission is comprised of the people assigned to it at any given time. Hosts agree to provide protection and privacy to foreign missions who in turn agree to leave if they are expelled. "Sovereign land" shouldn't be an issue *in theory*

      @@theapexsurvivor9538 none of the above. the thing is that while not actually "extra-territorial" many corps already have the beginning of such status and had it back when SR was created which is where they probably got the idea. mining and oil/gas companies operations in 3rd world countries have their own security forces which are essentially army grade and are not really bound by the relevant country regulation for keeping such forces ( or can at least bribe their way out of any such regulations). "mercenary" companies like Blackwater or Wagner get away with killing citizens all the time. it might be under your radar as this happens far away from the west, but be sure that if a protest against a fracking company goes a bit too far and risks causing significant harm to an oil company operation they will hurt US citizens on US soil and get away with it stating property rights and so forth. Energy, mining, security and Arms corporations will be the first to get extraterritoriality as they already kinda have it...
