I'm asking this out of curiosity; I don't need to host anything that can't already be done in the West


Lots of countries have very relaxed or non-existent enforcement of torrent filesharing. That's not what I'm asking.

I'm asking about what place one could openly host every known commercial pop song and every Hollywood film without any worry about being shutdown or sued.

For a reference, according to a one-minute check of Wikipedia, the only countries which haven't ratified the Berne Convention or the TRIPS Agreement in any way are Eritrea, Kosovo, Palau and Palestine. While joining these agreements doesn't imply they're enforced, it gives an idea of how widely governments do agree to intellectual property rights.

~~how much would it cost to launch an independent server into orbit?~~

What does internet have anything to do with piracy? The question was if Copyright is enforced. Can speak from experience that it’s not, and was/is extremely difficult sometimes to find legit software.
