Basically title. I remember reading about it back in like 2018, I even remember a company that would provide crypto based on the amount of traffic you let through. Just curious if that ever saw any growth.

Everything I google keeps bringing up things on the darkweb. The goal of this was explicitly to go “ISP-less”. Like they envisioned mesh net covering giant swathes of space.

    I think what you’re talking about is mesh networking?

      Basically, but I swear I remember a push that amounted to “What if we made a HUGE mesh”. Based on other comments though it looks like I may be misremembering a developing IoT protocol.
