It cannot be stressed how important it is to build competence in decentralized communication systems. In the aftermath of a major disaster, cellular networks are going to be overloaded, and blackouts mean the Internet won't be available. Learning about amateur (or "ham") radio should be a priority for every forward-thinking person. Resources are available online, and most hams are old dudes who just want somebody to talk to, so they're happy to share what they know. Some good resources:

Do amerilards really think magapedes are fasciscts?
On the topic: technology advice is inconsistent and contradicting. They don't even host a wiki, all normal technology collectives that disseminate knowledge do, looks like a coding camp scam. All they seem to offer on the webpage is paid-for "workshops" and introductory RTFM advice.
Also, their subtitle
>Technology education for radical organizers and revolutionary communities.
glows in the dark too much for my taste.

There's torrent but it's not anonymous
There are torrents on i2p tho but they're slow
There's also freenet, the idea of which I quite a bit, that is the preservation of your files doesn't strictly depend on seeders

I guess I'm just worried if my software wont be packaged in. But then again, in that case, I can always just compile from source, lol

One big hurdle is trying to source hardware in scalable and cost effective way.

Businesses that are shuttering their doors may be an avenue to look down, a lot of the time they dump a lot of equipment for little to nothing since it isn't worth their time to sell

Not >>84 here, but the biggest difficulty I've had with any Wide Area Network design is sourcing high-powered wireless bridges, which aren't very common even in a lot of enterprise settings.

I just recently got into messing around with hardware (like dismantling and soldering stuff), though… I wonder if it's possible to modify an ordinary wireless access point to use an external antenna.

Anonymous 12/06/20 (Sun) 18:04:44 No.99

So don't do it in a scalable cost effective way? Just buy a few at a time and try to get anything working at first, why does it have to be scalable right away? Just try getting even a model of the thing working and slowly buy a few more nodes with extra money from your job.
