Anonymous, an organization which, among many justice campaigns, assists in achieving the liberation of Julian Assage the hacker Mendax and winner of many journalism awards. According the book by Commander X a famous participant in Anonymous, the group takes inspiration from and actually lays roots in the People's Liberation Front (P.L.F.), Animal Liberation Front (A.L.F.), and Earth Liberation Front (E.L.F.).
Vegans, today; especially, might appreciate the notion of state laws which outlaw contributing to cruelty towards animals.
A few examples already exist of attempts to create tokens which enforce vegan economics, including VeganNation's GreenCoin (GRNC).
A law that stops the trade by incorporated companies from funding ecosystem destruction, the slaughter or imprisonment of non-human animals, and grants asylum to journalists like Julian Assange who do nothing worse than revealing secrets in the public's interests.
It would require specification of ethical gathering of resources, mainly accounting for non-human animals made homeless by the resource gathering or industrializing of any area and moving those creatures to homes which give them atleast a slightly better quality of life.
Such a law shouldn't seem as-if rubbing against the libertarian principles of Liberland, since prohibiting animal cruelty is just as important as preventing slavery. If the law gets interpreted to grant ecosystems and animals personhood similar to corporations and children, then it should actually follow that they need protection under a libertarian system, so they can evolve to make contracts, take voluntary actions like paying taxes in the far future, plus be free from oppression.
