Well the internet is written mostly by bots. Everything needs Id and spying. We may end up building a new internet so fuck the old internet
Meshtastic-Net
Oh meshtastic is really cool but even without GPS broadcasting, it is FAR from private. There are some serious flaws with its encryption apparently that the devs don't want to address, and im like 99% sure you can just be triangulated anyway.
That being said, meshtastic is awesome and everyone should try it. Its a lot of fun and you can "meet" cool people in your community who are kind of maketspace-adjacent.
Also don't listen to the meshcore grifters, meshcore is proprietary and requires you to pay for licenses to use its full feature set. They're like reverse Linux users who just show up whenever meshtastic is mentioned to try to convince you to give your freedoms away
We’ll build a new internet with blackjack and hookers.
Just like it used to be.
You know what, forget the blackjack
The first e-commerce was a weed deal. Don't forget that.
And the hookers are just all obese sweaty neckbears roleplaying as hookers
Hey let’s not mention the neck beard and focus on the RTX bimbo tits. You won’t hear any complaints from me 😉
You’re right here, building it with us!
NomadNet feels a bit like a new old internet.
