The bipartisan push to remove anonymity from the internet is ushering in an era of unprecedented mass surveillance and censorship.

    Not OP, but I personally would like to see a mesh-based low-bandwidth HTTP alternative, like Gemini. A tool set for sharing things more persistent than text messaging (or ideally building other digital services with) while being compatible with the underlying lower performance hardware and wireless medium.

      Http doesn’t have that much overhead (especially when you want to send things in the MB range)

      What kinds of applications are you talking about? Are you thinking TCP/IP connectivity or something slower?

      You can build a network mesh out of wireless point to point and 802.11s mesh networks. It is all TCP/IP networking so you can run any application you want over it.

      Edit:

      I forgot about HaLow. It is lower bandwidth but it has a much longer range. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11ah
