But it seems not everyone can be on the same network right? Kinda like a group chat really? Still trying to picture current and future use cases.
Cool! Jack posted this video about it.

If I’m being explained to like I’m 5 years old, Is the idea that it’s basically a private text walkie talkie? If we could get, let’s say, at least one person every mile from each other, the text walkie talkie can skip over users much further away to the device you’re trying to reach? You just need a device for typing, like a phone or computer to pair with it?
Discussion
You share an encryption key like with a group chat on a messenger. Each channel gets one. To join, you need the channel name and the key.
The best use case we see is for off-grid comms. Hurricanes are a thing here, and the power goes out for days or weeks.
I'm experimenting with motion sensors that broadcast to the channel, also. So the neighbors know your house is being burglarized. In this area that's like a hunting permit being issued.
