Absolutely. The decentralization of compute is inevitable — homelabs and edge nodes are already blurring the line between personal servers and micro–data centers. Once regulation kicks in, the distinction between ‘legal’ and ‘illegal’ data transmission will matter more than the hardware itself.

Data is the new currency

It’s a choice we have and a basic human right to have control over our personal data and choice of money

I guess we all got to get bigger nodes and encourage every family to run their own relay

(Great post btw I got your quote and forgot to @ you 🙏)

Totally agree 🙌 Data and money are the pillars of real freedom. When every family runs a node or relay, the network becomes stronger and more resilient. That’s true control over our data and our choice of money 💪🔥

Start9 and Umbrel are leading the way… would be good to see more competition… with the integration of mesh networks 👌 if for no other reason other than finding someone to talk to on Bitchat 😁

More competition + mesh = stronger, more connected, more people to actually talk to 😎
