   Vice's publication Motherboard says that "To Save Net Neutrality, We Must Build Our Own Internet" and will start publishing articles on how to set up decentralized internet infrastructure and start your own ISP.

   That's going way beyond traditional journalism. That's really awesome!

         @lnxw48a1 The USA is big geographically, IXPs are not *that* numerous, closest IXPs are either 105 miles away (PIT) or 175 miles away  (CMH)

         @lnxw48a1 I could build mesh islands but the backhaul to the chosen IXP would kill the mesh net’s utility. Only one IXP in all Ohio to peer.
