Nevada bill would allow tech companies to create governments
Democratic Gov. Steve Sisolak announced a plan to launch so-called Innovation Zones in Nevada to jumpstart the state’s economy by attracting technology firms, Las Vegas Review-Journal reported Wednesday. The zones would permit companies with large areas of land to form governments carrying the same authority as counties, including the ability to impose taxes, form school districts and courts and provide government services. The measure to further economic development with the “alternative form of local government” has not yet been introduced in the Legislature. [...] The Governor’s Office of Economic Development would oversee applications for the zones, which would be limited to companies working in specific business areas including blockchain, autonomous technology, the Internet of Things, robotics, artificial intelligence, wireless, biometrics and renewable resource technology. Zone requirements would include applicants owning at least 78 square miles (202 square kilometers) of undeveloped, uninhabited land within a single county but separate from any city, town or tax increment area. Companies would have at least $250 million and plans to invest an additional $1 billion in their zones over 10 years. The zones would initially operate with the oversight of their location counties, but would eventually take over county duties and become independent governmental bodies.

Grazie, Giacomo, per la segnalazione. First reaction: Shock!

Direi impietoso. Però. per evitare di essere attanagliati da depressione caspica, vi butta là una provocazione: avete visto il film l'Isola delle Rose? :-) D. -- Ing. D. Davide Lamanna - CTO mobile: 340 4830930 voip: 06 916504256 fax: 06 233225276 Via Salaria, 292 - 00199 Roma www.binarioetico.it

Esatto. Ho avuto la tua stessa "preferenza". Di fronte ad una follia del genere, non può non venirci in mente di provare ad hackerarla con finalità di segno opposto. :-) D.
