    If darknets become a thing, I could see regional intranets start popping up if the general internet doesn’t meet peoples needs.

    Think about what you could get out of a truely open platform set up by individuals without a megs corp. Could be awesome.

      A meshtashtic-forum would be awesome!

      But unfortunately, I think we’re getting the qq/weibo/baidu/zhihu type of internet 😕

        Personally I think there’s going to be lots of solutions that people come up with, local or not to the issue. If the internet continues to stop being useful, individuals or collectives will likely start to fill the void.

        If smaller communities feel pushed out by traditional internet then we javevseen cases of people just…making a network with a couple of friends. That’s all it really needs to be.

        At least in my opinion. Darknets continue to abound, we just font hear about them until they pop up now and again.
