That would be hard to pull off, look at how much interference is on WiFi already. Satellites could work, but someone would have to maintain them and get them up there. Great idea though, you're on the right track. If there was less regulation I'm sure anything could be possible.
It has to be high frequency, and of course there are regulations there too, so it would be hard.
But if the internet 2.0 would be decentralized the signal doesn't have to be long, if everyone around you is an internet server, the most the signal has to travel is a few meters. It would be doable, but the ISP lobby and governments would not like it.
Great idea, but it seems a lot like a "all or nothing"-solution. That is, you have to get everyone on board first in order to have a network of antennas big enough to work.
Possibly something that Steemit could recommend to people once they reach a billion users. :)
Didn't know they were doing this as well - great organisation - well worth looking into!
Here's the link for the main site....looks like they're making progress http://www.ubuntuparty.org.za/
Thanks for the heads up
great i also though of bloggin a bit about ubuntu .. but then im really new to blogging
so i didnt wanted to make my first posts about what is like really important to me..
if you get what i mean^^
Hmmm...I'm still new to markdown and messed up the formatting on the show notes, but when I go to edit it won't let me press "Update Post." It's greyed out and I get the little "no" sign when I hover the cursor over it. Anyone know why that is?
I've had a few weird editor problems happen a few time. Try shift+reload of the page and see if that helps. It may not fix the problem, but it has solved a few weird problems I've seen a few times. Glad to have you here.
I am not one of the developers so I can't tell you why it is doing that. If you have a different browser try popping over into it and see if you get the same thing. If it were after 12 hours I could see it doing this, but I've not had what you are describing happen at this time.
I tend to bounce between Chrome and Firefox and you could see if it'll let you edit in one. (yes, you are a smart guy and very possibly already tried this)
Another thing that popped into me mind is if you are logged in using something other than the POSTING, or OWNER password/key... could that be a possibility?
I also had this problem the other day when uploading a blog post. Try opening steemit in a new tab and then try it again. This worked for me, Hopefully It does for you also.
I had the same issue and I just kept insisting and clicking "post" over and over and at last it worked :)
having similar issues absolutely at every step here, and most of the time just waiting a little and trying again worked for me
You think the Clintons had anything to do with that murdered DNC staffer? Shot in the back and wallet, money, credit cards, and phone all left behind... hmm
Great article, did you guys knew that internet can be fairly easily built without ISP's by using long range radio antennas or possibly satelites.
Of course the TPTB don't want you to have free internet that everyone could setup for 25$. They want to control you and surveil you!

Possibly. Steemit will play a role in it, that is true.
i heard long ago someone talk of this very possibility, seems like a perfect plan to me !! ; - )
also a great way to get internet anywhere (just for mobile ) is the Ubuntu space phone ! check it out :)

Thanks for the tip...but I'm afraid it didn't work.

"Previous Episode: Police 3D-Print Murder Victim's Finger to Unlock His Phone". Holy cow.

Hmmmmmm i wonder ?? what do you think ?? : - )
I'm thinking YES!
I doubt those TV detector vans ever existed. It was pure BS to scare people into getting their TV licenses.
Public taxe payers... paying to be spied on! Sound familiar?
are you promoting sputnik news or what?
Thanks James and James and Happy Birthday James, have a great day
