Re: Nominee officers and directors (was: Why cryptome sold weblogs...)
The IRS mainly determines if you are a contractor, for taxation purposes, by your other gainful activities. If you work solely for one client they usually consider you an employee. I suspect the IRS classification also applies in non-taxation contexts.

How does an individual become a "bona fide contractor" to avoid being "subject to either receiving or implementing court orders or NSLs" as you put it, and in what circumstances would I want to be a "bona fide contractor?" I am certain not everyone would want to be one, for various reasons.

Despite almost two decades of cypherpunk activity I cannot fathom why U.S. residents operate sites clearly in the cross-hairs of intel agencies. Have they never heard of non-resident nominee officers and directors? All U.S. resident people dealing with the site should be bona fide contractors so they aren't subject to either receiving or implementing court orders or NSLs.
