So a current passion is learning to be part of, or even build a mesh network that serves as a backup to your normal internet connection. So if your ISP blocks you, or they are down due to power or malware you have options. So far https://gotennamesh.com/ seems promising. Looking at Ham radio too but for any meaningful data rate and distance you need a 'licence' where you will be owned/doxxed/kycd. Ham radio licences also seem to disallow sending encrypted data?

Hoping to use a combo of gotennamesh, starlink, ham radio and other tech to find a way.

Any thoughts or tips on how to pursue this?
