I'm looking to move from the US because of their increasing wish to mimic China's great firewall.

Increasing? Brother if the US government wants to know what you are looking at its already over for you. They can know everything about you in like 5 minutes.

I'm Aussie and I don't really closely follow the news, but that sounds more like a censorship problem than a privacy one? Even the Chinese find a way around the wall though. My governments been trying to protect its citizens from the horrors of the open internet for decades, they're... not good at it. I understand the desire for more freedom though.

While it is a censorship one now, the only way to enforce it would be pretty heavy surveillance.
