Is it something that can be run from the states? I'll take it and run it while you're gone.

#43I'm assuming you are this guy: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/07/18/alvin-and-vivian-ja... What you did was quite offensive, for Muslims and non-Muslims. If you are that person, it may difficult to find someone you can trust enough to take over the SaaS startup whilst you are away. Good luck.
Thanks for the link but that is in no way offensive

#44>> Is there anything I can do to save my SaaS startup?
Don't you think you have bigger things to worry about then your SaaS company ? I meant, you are about to lose your freedom which I feels should be your first priority.
I really feels to have a stronger case and to preserve your freedom, you should come out open with your name. International pressure and media do work as in Deborah Dalelv's case http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/07/19/marte-deborah-dalel...
SaaS companies normally don't have lot of overhead, so you can hand over the control to some local friend, do inform your customers about your current situation and the possible repercussions of it.

#45Outrageous. I can't accept things like this are still happening in 2013. Please tell me that you at least considered leaving your country.

#46I might be able to put you in contact with someone who knows a great deal about asylum requests in Italy. Let me know if you're interested.

#47Escape the country. Going into a foreign embassy is not gonna do you any good. "The Free World" spies on, and jails its own people, and it will not risk another Mohammad cartoongate helping you. So don't even think about requesting asylum at an embassy. Sell all you own and head to the nearest border/coastal town. Pay off smugglers or fishermen and get the fuck out.
You think life is a video game, don't you? There are some other geniuses suggesting the same useless solution.
Let's say he did what you said. Do you think he will be able to build a life easily in another country as a refugee? Even opening a bank account will be a huge pain in the ass. The rest of his life will be ruined basically. And it seems he don't care about going to jail, he wants to keep his business running. Escaping the country will do the opposite.

I don't know why you would just assume that, but considering this:
> Sex bloggers Alvin Tan and Vivian Lee have been charged and imprisoned without bail
It clearly isn't him

#49Leave the country if possible. I obviously can't know what kind of anti religious posts you have made and what your history on that matter is, but if it isn't hate speech that encourages others to discriminate or do anything else illegal there definitely would be some countries that would give you asylum. The other option if you want to accept going into prison for whatever reason (maybe it is just a few months, or y…
Australia or perhaps Canada
Don't go to Australia. We're mostly locking up asylum-seekers on small off-shore island detention centers. This is not a good thing.

#50Earlier quoted context omitted.
His crime is "posting a religiously-insensitive photograph". Sounds like a poster boy for the refugee visa.
isn't it called asylum.
If you're outside of the US you can apply to be a refugee and be granted a visa. Only once you're in the US can you request asylum.
