    Sounds incredibly naïve. When you host your fediverse instance, you can be made liable to do all that bullshit by the state. The location of your server can be tracked if you don’t comply.

    There is i2p but it would be really better for everyone if we just remove the laws that destroy privacy instead of crafting workarounds.

      What we need to do is start running fiber optic cable door to door between Neighbors. There’s a literally nothing they could do about that except for sending people to go physically cut cables

        The funny thing is… I can see about 6 WiFi networks from my neighbors, despite being in the basement right now. What do you need those cables for again?

        We’d need a routing protocol that can use way more hops. IPv4 only supports up to 255 hops, so if I ballpark the average distance between houses at 100 feet, I’d only be able to access stuff hosted within 5 miles or so of me. There are some other functional considerations, but I’m sure you could drive entirely across most cities and see WiFi coverage the whole way.
