    Hopefully we can move to some kind of underground “dark net” type thing and make a 90s / 2000s style internet with forums and stuff. Actual information and not AI Slop.

    Or just stop using the internet as much and be more productive.

        I read the other day that meshtastic doesn’t have the bandwidth to send much data. And all other data has to wait until it finishes sending the first thing.

        I think the better option is having a wifi with a server or NAS to serve content and other neighbors mesh with the WiFi and keep boosting it.

          Frankly the modern internet is extremely bloated, most non-video/image hosting should take very little bandwidth.

        And the government will be able to easily squash that by tracing the sources. It’s gonna have to be more of an underground darknet that piggybacks off other signals like copper or electrical.

          Yeah, it’s hard not to imagine anything that couldn’t be compromised pretty quickly these days. That being said, is it worth the money to hunt down tens of thousands of small mesh devices? Value plays a big part in this for both sides, I guess. I actually have no idea how plausible any of it is, just fun to dream up
