@moonman seriously. #p2p is a lot worse. right now, you can opt-out of being tracked by using services that you host yourself or that you trust not to track you. the way p2p world is currecntly shaping up, everything you do is a matter of public record.
a lot of people in the "redecentralize" movement are super into transparency to avoid having their brand sullied by pirates. "you can't hide anything so only legit data is going to be transmitted over our network", they say. a valid point i suppose, but that sentiment strongly echoes "you don't need privacy if you have nothing to hide".
of course, strong privacy will enable piracy. there is nothing we can do about that because you can't have selective privacy. the question is, what do we really care about? do we care about users, privacy, and freedom or getting patted on the head by the powers that be?

starting up a new project in the coming weeks: meshlocal.org
specifically, in my case, slc.meshlocal.org
if you're interested in organizing a meshlocal in your area (bridged to other meshlocals over #hyperboria) hmu on xmpp:xj9@infinite.ai
i'm finishing up some hardware designs and rpi images for APs that are pretty much plug-and-play
if we can get enough people involved, we should be able to save some money on components by buying in bulk.

> LocationSmart, a California-based technology company, is one of a handful of so-called data aggregators. It claimed to have "direct connections" to cell carrier networks to obtain real-time cell phone location data from nearby cell towers. It's less accurate than using GPS, but cell tower data won't drain a phone battery and doesn't require a user to install an app. Verizon, one of many cell carriers that sells access to its vast amounts of customer location data, counts LocationSmart as a close partner.

@taiz too bad we can't vote the merchant off the island

apparently people think #gscon is made up
the truth is, we have strict OPSEC protocols that ensure that nobody will ever know for sure.
