Makes me wonder if the future of the internet is federated network hardware. There’s already efforts in bigger cities to distribute mesh networks (especially to lower-income areas), so it doesn’t seem like a far leap to create an internet by users and for users.
This is cool to see, are there any examples in the Los Angeles City/County areas? Not sure how common place backups like this are, but it’s a smart idea.

Are there any current examples of that?
NYC Mesh!

There’s likely others, but this one has been around for about a decade and is still operational.
