Have you actually tested your research results in a court? I have. At least in commonwealth jurisdictions they DGAF that all the grandfathered laws from England should not allow them to have statutes they have on the books. "you're right, but I'm still ruling against you" was what I saw, and the only way around that is to go where they are more relaxed at enforcement and the customs of the people are resistant to them even if they are.
Note that A4V did actually work against the tax collectors though, when I filed over 30kAUD of "improper" GST refunds. Never got prosecuted over that. You can definitely get away with it twice in Australia, for sure if you decide to vacate the jurisdiction anyway.
I know all the stuff about maritime law and bills of exchange and all that. I doubt that you are going to change my opinion that the law is selectively enforced. Maybe they are more sane in the USA in some state courts. Almost no laws that have been introduced anywhere since at least the 70s has been correctly applicable to natural human persons.
Did you really read my reply? I literally said: "I was in a court and walk away"...

I walked away on a plane. My efforts to make a living as a freelance sole proprietor business operator (tech support) were too hard to do on my budget without access to reliable transport for my marketing and services. Too many people just kow-tow to the claims of jurisdiction and push your costs up to collect taxes on your behalf in Australia and not any different in the UK either these days. This made it impossible for me to break out of the loop of poverty and welfare dependance. Life's been harder without that in some ways but the sense of freedom has massively increased.
Stand your ground if it suits your business model but not everyone is making money the way you do in reach of these usurers.
