Legislation working its way through the UK parliament would ban children from using social media and virtual private networks – but the proposals would endanger online privacy and may not make children safer, say legal experts
Meshtastic uses LoRa, so slow speeds but far distance. A better choice is reticulum, this combines LoRa, Wifi HaLow, Wifi 2.4 & 5 GHz and BLE together into one network stack. So in a city we could have faster data speeds all sharing WiFi and rural areas that currently need satellite we could have a connection over far distances wirelessly. Reticulum is also encrypted, meshtastic is not
Okay yeah that was the impression I had too. I was excited when I first heard about it but from what I read it didn’t seem like you could do much with it. I’m still interested in playing around with it though if I find some free time. Ham didn’t really interest me as it requires a license which kind of defeats the purpose of this imo.
We’ll just continue to make our own internet with blackjack and hookers. Too much knowledge is already out.
Isn’t that just the “dark web”
Yeah, it’s also meshtastic, ham, p2p
We’ve got options and always will.
What’re the data rates like on meshtastic and ham? Wasn’t looking great when I briefly looked at it.

I mean they’re not crazy good by any means, but they could be improved upon. More so speaking of mesh, ham is its own mystery in my brain.
Just examples really of networking outside of the normal infrastructure.

Agreed on that front as well.
There has been some progress with data on meshtastic as well as range. For what it is in its current state, it’s still pretty awesome imo
I assume unless they just make whitelist of sites you can connect to you can find workarounds.
It’s called the deep web in this case. The dark web takes special tools to access, like Tor
