i’m not saying this isn’t BAD but honestly it’s hard to care that much because the internet i care about is already dead, anyway. we need to build our own mesh network
I bet NOW people are gonna care about that. After a lifetime of Facebook/Linkd-In etc, Foursquare/Strava/etc, unencrypted email, plaintext passwords, actual decades of never once creating a GPG key, using public WIFI, sticking passwords to monitors, and using “password” as a password, this is gonna be the straw that breaks the camel’s back…
Privacy is DEAD. Just wait until every camera in public is also generating a constant stream of AI observations.
I don’t even care about privacy (per se) anymore, I want just non-commercial spaces. You can see my ass if you want, I will gladly trade privacy for expression in a place I’m not being exploited by capital.

Honestly, you’re not wrong.
Try and find a country not doing this or something almost the same, I’ll wait.
Literally every country is trying to pull this shit in 2026.
That doesn’t mean it isn’t a bad idea that is being poorly implemented and will absolutely have massive privacy implications.

How can we build a mesh network for the internet?
