http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/08/19/ukgov_uber_database/ has details of a possible “data silo” that contains all of our data.
This blog-post is meant to be a list of potential sites that will enable british citizens to escape the police state that we are rapidly becoming by moving their data outside teritorial waters.
For those of you who honestly believe “those who have nothing to hide have nothing to fear”, please add a comment listing your bank account and PIN numbers, full address and contact details including every email address, mobile phone and landline number that you have and details of where you work. If you could also send me a copy of your front door key so I can come and visit you and watch your TV or sleep in your bed whenever I want, that would also be good. If you’re not going to do this, then you’ve got something to hide, haven’t you???
Please add to the list of datacentres using the comments section below. I’ll turn this into a proper database at somepoint (and publish the schema here for openess!) and link to it from here.

I don’t know anything about this but am interested. Somebody mentioned VPN to Russia - I know enough to know that this sounds feasible but wouldn’t have a clue where to start.
The basics would be as follows:
1) Get a Virtual Private Server somewhere that has data-laws that do not permit spying.
2) install OpenVPN Server ( http://www.openvpn.net/ ) onto that server
3) Install the client onto your laptop/desktop
4) Configure the OpenVPN connection to be the default route

Take out a 3G PAYG data subscription (http://www.three.co.uk/personal/products_services_/mobile_broadband_/price_plans_payg.omp) and use this with a laptop - One of the main reasons that the BBC aren’t allowed to provide Olympic coverage over mobile-broadband links is because the IOC can’t be sure where the stream is going to (the BBC are only allowed to broadcast the event within the UK)
I’m putting together a list of facilities and software that can be used to retain our privacy
