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!
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. :)
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 !! ; - )
