How not to die if your business model is (borderline) illegal:
-delete your chat logs and email
-don't have sensitive(incriminating, personal) information in logs at all (see 37sig story)
-don't use your own (illegal) product
-"outsource" the code to a "separate" entity, obfuscate it, claim ignorance and trade secret
-donate to senators, judges, prosecutors, presidents
All pretty obvious, I'm sure you can think of more, if your Mazerati depends on it.
