The Compromised Internet

[rich@openwatch.net (Rich Jones)]

Free and Open 4G radios/base stations are actually quite exciting for this
reason. The thing which actually prevents mesh networks from working is
mathematical: past a certain network size, path finding becomes too
computationally expensive, so wifi based mesh networks can only cover a
certain radius before they stop working. With the 4G spectrum, however, the
distances between hops vastly increases, meaning that city-wide mesh
networks can grow and remain performant. This allows for free communication
and file transfer without centralized authorities. Obviously there are
still threats, but there is a lot of freedom gained from network autonomy.
