RE: Can Libertarian Municipalism save democracy in the 21st century?

Good ideas. Any way to break up centralized control is valid in my opinion. Concerning the internet and blockchain, I would like to see a concerted effort to develop #meshnets. This would dramatically decentralize the networks such that discussing #netneutrality policy and the like would be pretty much pointless.

Meshnets would literally allow individuals to run their own ISP and incentivise a whole new market that could not be controlled.

Sort:  

I'd never even heard of Meshnets, but it sounds fascinating.

If my understanding is correct, it could break up the traditional hierarchal structure from a central ISP to consumers, and instead implement a truly open source network that cannot be controlled or manipulated by a central body.

Exactly.

The challenge, as with all things decentralized, is that people will have to be responsible for their own.
