    I do not like the looks of the future. Too much regulatory capture, too much critical infrastructure based on technology too little effort has been spent explaining to the layperson. It leads to clueless and incompetent governance like this, to the benefit of a handful of the worst people, to the detriment of most of us.

      The internet routes around damage. Lemmy, Tor and many other projects are the direct result of government and business interference.

          Sure, but we’re quickly approaching wireless distances where even a few people in a metro area can get a mesh network going.

            That could be made illegal as well if the FCC felt inclined to. Radio direction finding would make tracking down mesh nodes fairly trivial for them.
