+						to register a foreign (offshore) company, in a country that respects privacy (if yours doesn't). Having a company can be beneficial, even if you don't intend to do business,
+						because it offers flexibility in case you ever did want to do that in the future, and it can afford certain opportunities that are typically unavailable
+						to individuals. It's not actually necessary, though, since putting a pseudonym (or no name at all) on your work is also legitimate.
