    Hopefully we can move to some kind of underground “dark net” type thing and make a 90s / 2000s style internet with forums and stuff. Actual information and not AI Slop.

    Or just stop using the internet as much and be more productive.

      Maybe something like i2p, Tor or IPFS

      I’m curious what the younger generation does. They are the ones who are good about bypassing restrictions.

        I read the other day that meshtastic doesn’t have the bandwidth to send much data. And all other data has to wait until it finishes sending the first thing.

        I think the better option is having a wifi with a server or NAS to serve content and other neighbors mesh with the WiFi and keep boosting it.

          Frankly the modern internet is extremely bloated, most non-video/image hosting should take very little bandwidth.

    The Internet is a bunch of Autonomous Systems running open protocols like BGP. Packets have no passports.

    Stop using the parts that ask for ID except for ones that have a passing justification like government sites, banking, and utilities. I’m sure there will still be plenty of sites like the Fediverse that don’t request ID.

    I’m not sure, but I certainly don’t want to have my id linked to everything.

    We spent years being told don’t use your real name on the internet etc

    Now the government’s want us to tie formal id to it

        Right now who do you think uses tor, primarily? 8chan pol, daily stormer, qanon, drug markets, and pedophile forums

          most pedophile forums are fake afaik

          and yeah i guess there are those things, but most people there just want anonimity
