For people with amateur radio licenses, amateur sattelite is already a thing that exists. I haven’t looked into it, or even thought about it at all until now, but I’m sure it’s least theoretically possible for a completely decentralized, amatuer internet to be built using only radio/sattelite infrastructure, which would actually be really interesting. I think we could really use another internet, totally separate from this; an internet that requires a license to access legally, which itself requires passing a test demonstrating a solid understanding of how the system works on a technical level; that exists on the air and only on the air, overseen by whatever regulatory body already oversees the airwaves in a given country anyway, and by them only and by no one else; a totally disparate internet wholly unrelated to this, which, by definition and by law, exists exclusively for every individual reason imaginable that is already legal and which is not commercial; an internet wherein a literal felony is commited by advertising in any way. We could really use a self policing internet owned and operated by the people, for the people; completely free as in going to prison for trying to sell something; completely free as in freedom of speech without limitation otherwise. The internet, meaning this internet as it exists at present, cannot effectively police itself because it’s already used for commercial purposes legally. Don’t get me wrong: we need an internet like that to exist, and I don’t mean to suggest otherwise. If for no other reason than exactly that, it would benefit everyone involved for an amateur internet to exist by itself, I think.
