I heard recently that a Russian oligarch was running 'pirate-blasting tours' for his fellow million/billionaires: they charter a large yacht and pose as tourists in the western Indian Ocean to attract the pirates, but have a large amount of ordnance plus ex-special forces on board, so that when the pirates attack, the Russian and his rich friends plus their professional back-up blow them out of the water; apparently Russian big-spenders are willling to shell out the odd $million for such a trip.
