Building on this unanswered question: Under what circumstances could laying hacker "traps" cause civil or criminal liability for non-law enforcement civilians?

I was wondering if there was any place where hacking back is legal, and if would be possible for companies to base their operations there, so they have a legal basis to hack back at their attackers.

As far as I can tell, it is illegal in most places, but I'd like to make sure there isn't a country that permits it.

This report summarizes the state of cyber-crime law in Africa, noting that 60% of African nations have no laws against hacking (much less laws against "hacking back"). It is 5 years old so there may be some changes.
