Right now the problem IS the government.

2018-05-07 23:12:08 UTC  

In a lot of places they make it all but impossible to create and isp start up.

2018-05-07 23:12:28 UTC  

Only problem with something like that would be not being able to really guarantee any certainty of uptime.

2018-05-07 23:12:50 UTC  

Well, that would depend on the money put into hardware

2018-05-07 23:12:53 UTC  

You'd have to insure that every node along the way is working.

2018-05-07 23:13:21 UTC  

And wireless only would deeeefinitely be a huge step backwards in stability.

2018-05-07 23:14:57 UTC  

What do you mean? You connect to a backbone network. That is what ISPs hook up to. From there, it's distributed out to the community. You could go the way of your current meshes, which are problematic as they go from router to router, meaning you are going through like 15 routers before getting to the node. Or you set it up for people to Hardline right to hub

2018-05-07 23:16:01 UTC  

The idea of centralizing in a hub is because connection right to a backbone costs that 1500 monthly. Split that costs across several households is better than each household paying for their own connections

2018-05-07 23:17:24 UTC  

Ah I see. When you say replacing the system I was thinking that'd include dropping from both the government and the massive corporations currently running the system.

2018-05-07 23:18:19 UTC  

Yes, exactly. And it's already a thing. Just need to fine ways to expand it

2018-05-07 23:19:35 UTC  

..Neat.

2018-05-07 23:33:54 UTC  

Under current systems, it would inevitably go through the city, though.

2018-05-07 23:35:08 UTC  

I could see a city crack down on a system like this citing zoning law if they wanted to.

2018-05-07 23:35:41 UTC  

Mesh networking really does look like what HAM radio already uses but for bigger loads.

2018-05-07 23:50:11 UTC  
2018-05-07 23:52:50 UTC  

because based on my read this is obviously narrative driven

2018-05-10 02:12:43 UTC  
2018-05-10 04:17:22 UTC  

Amazing.

2018-05-10 07:52:40 UTC  

How someone could be that deluded is beyond me

2018-05-10 08:26:58 UTC  
2018-05-10 08:27:01 UTC  

its like that 😛

2018-05-11 00:49:01 UTC  

You guys heard of Freenet? https://freenetproject.org/

2018-05-11 00:49:12 UTC  

> Freenet is free software which lets you anonymously share files, browse and publish "freesites" (web sites accessible only through Freenet) and chat on forums, without fear of censorship. Freenet is decentralised to make it less vulnerable to attack, and if used in "darknet" mode, where users only connect to their friends, is very difficult to detect.

2018-05-11 01:27:25 UTC  

their website mentions their copyright policy (i.e. that copyright will not and cannot be enforced), but the same goes for illegal material. these people risk prosecution under FOSTA

2018-05-11 01:28:17 UTC  

like tor this network will be heavily used by pedophiles

2018-05-11 01:40:55 UTC  

And? The unfortunatete reality is that you either accept their ability to post things, and go after them in person. Or you force them into hiding so you pretend they don't exist.

2018-05-11 01:41:40 UTC  

Your inability to see them doesn't make them go away, and it may not even limit their ability to get victims

2018-05-11 02:14:55 UTC  

hmmm if i understand the tech correctly, if that is the case one may unknowingly store encrypted, replicated CP on their computer

2018-05-11 02:15:24 UTC  

but is it really subject to FOTSA given it's just software and not a service?

2018-05-11 03:13:42 UTC  

like i can write a todo list on kidnap and rape with word, and MS aren't liable for that

2018-05-11 03:41:00 UTC  

By my understanding of FOSTA, it's actually left ambiguous as to whether or not Microsoft would be liable, especially since they no longer sell permanent licenses to consumers, but rather Software As A Service (eg., Office 365 is actually a software service, not a software product). I may be wrong, though.

2018-05-11 03:44:09 UTC  

And since OneDrive is a web hosting service, it's likely that if you save the file to your OneDrive folder instead of to your local hard drive, they are unambiguously liable.

2018-05-12 08:08:58 UTC  

Moonbat14, Microsoft just announced an overhaul to Skype, Office and all that stuff that they own your documents and if you are using their service for nefarious means they have the right to terminate your account. You can call it coincidence that this happened in lock step with FOSTA if you want.

Dolphins are the Ultimate Ukrainian nationalists

2018-05-17 23:17:02 UTC  

http://archive.is/Wx6CE buzzfeed hitpiece on internet bloodsports and superchats

2018-05-17 23:19:10 UTC  

Of course they would have a hit piece on Superchat.

2018-05-17 23:19:27 UTC  

They've gone after advertisers already..

2018-05-17 23:20:09 UTC  

They only get to make a dent on Super Chats if Youtube lets them. We'll see how it plays.
