Hook two computers together. Keep in mind one needs to route.

how does comcast connect to the internet?

is there a main internet hub?

What if a brand new internet was forged over existing infrastructures? We use powerline ethernet connections to stealthily create a new internet, one that is completely free and decentralized and short of cutting everybody's electricity will never go away.

This,

How hard would it be to create a decentralized internet?

Check zeronet (there is even 0chan.bit on it)

If you connect to existing infrastructure, that makes it a part of the same internet.

Yes. Its a linksys router in a cupboard somewhere in Berlin

Autonomous system, bgp, exchanges, transit, peering look it up fag.

Thats good and all, but do you still need an ISP?

stop posting on this board

...

Seriously, decentralized internet is there. We just need decentralized infrastructure..

if thats possible.

It is possible using equipment like HAM radios, that is if you want to pay the electric bill and get a license to operate one. That's the easiest way to do it if you don't have a ton of money laying around.

Thats actually the most practical way. Decentralized internet would in fact have to be wireless.

You might be able to get a dialup connection to function over CB or HAM if you modify the software to not dial but just hook the machine into a CB or HAM radio and tune in to the proper frequency - very possible. Getting decent speeds is another question though.

My father told me of how he and his friends would use a C64 on a HAM to send text messages to each other years back, so we know it's possible.

Shit, it already exists - albeit in a very slow form. It's been here the entire time

The only way to eliminate ISPs is to either allow people to wire themselves into the internet, which would be somewhat expensive but it would at least remove (((ISPs))) altogether and would actually become cheaper over the years as your personal "wire" is inherited by whoever gets your house next. Or for people to make WANs (via again, community bought cell towers or long range hotspot devices) and LANs. But this means communication beyond your country would be very limited and across the seas it would be impossible unless you sacrifice the speed, thus defeating the purpose of internet. So option 1 seems better.
Leave internet for regular browsing and make LANs for piracy. It's a lot simpler.

It's impossible unless you invest millions, maybe billions into it. Creating a decentralized and encrypted network on top of the current infrastructure (example, GNUnet) is a lot simpler and cheaper.

Yes, but it would be slow as fuck cross borders. I mean sure, the network would be torrent-like as in someone downloads an American website from Europe and seeds it to other European people at much better speeds, but any dynamic content would suffer.

What. Want to build your own Guizer or Araknet?

>recommending this broken piece of trash

For an actual decentralised solution that's not broken by design, check out ipfs.

>It's impossible unless you invest millions, maybe billions into it. Creating a decentralized and encrypted network on top of the current infrastructure (example, GNUnet) is a lot simpler and cheaper.
Almost completely defeats the purpose - if ISP's want to throttle your new website because you don't pay extra, then they can. The idea is to create an infrastructure that can't be tampered with in the same way, by anyone.

Since NN is gone I guess it's only a matter of time before home hosting is almost impossible and you get to pay for internet packages with only certain websites..... Figures, greedy fucks

A dumb frogposter does not need to know. It's not like he would be able to do it.

>frogposter

>literally has a dumb frog in the image
How about YOU go back?

ipfs.io

By connecting at least two computers with each other

>decentralized Internet
That's a good oxymoron

Make a world wide mesh net

>goes apeshit over a cartoon frog
The frog has a name - something you would know if you had been here longer than a day or two, but since you're fresh out of reddit you wouldn't know.

Here, I'll let you in on a secret.... that frog is posted almost just as much anime is here, so go back to your Sup Forums subreddit and eat a dogs ass you dumb nigger

Thia

>decentralized internet
>mesh net
Thats exactly how the Internet already works.

but comcast.

This is retarded OP. A better solution is to just buy Verizon. To acquire 51% of Verizon, if we spread the cost out over 100 million Americans, it would cost about $1k per person. Then, just everyone vote to have them remain net neutral, and bam, problem solved

You need to write routes to your own AS which are hosted inside your network. Say, you want to make a Sup Forums inside your own internet, so you advertise AS13335 is located on a segment of your own infrastructure, you assign addresses to that segment and deploy Sup Forums on your servers. There you have it.

...

Then create a fucking provider that doesn't suck. Creating everything from scratch just because there there is an US consumer ISP oligopoly is retarded.

There's nothing wrong thinking of alternate ways of internet infrastructure.

Honestly we are due for another paradigm shift.

US household wealth is $73 trillion. To buy Verizon 51% would only be 0.12% of the wealth

How should your alternative internet look like?

>getting 100 million people to do exactly the same thing
please share this mind control technology.

Ipfs is great, but if your upload to peers gets throttled (which would be possible for isps to do without NN), it is useless.

install TempleOS -> write you own sites

>household
what % of the pop is that? more than 1 i hope

>gets mad about his favourite reddit meme being made fun of
>posts reaction image he found on Sup Forums
>accidently admits that his favourite reddit meme is from reddit
it's like pottery

It's 99.9% of America. Multiply that 300 million and theirs your number of people

>99.9% of America can part with $1k

Hosting will always be possible without the need of ISPs. Even your android can be a hotspot which has local websites for anyone connected to visit. This technology does not rely on ISPs and can be used without SIM cards or external internet access. Something like this on a much larger scale can be made, but is still not decentralized, just ISP-less. If you were to redesign this technology so all parties can be hosts and also guests (example, having WiFi and hotspot enabled at the same time) you would effectively get a distributed model. But, again, anything on a larger scale will need tons of investment and your personal devices would only be able to host to people who are very close unless you want to severely sacrifice battery life. So not that many people would host which means you again get back to a torrent-like decentralized model with only a few hosts while others are merely leechers and seeders.
It's very difficult to make a truly distributed internet when 99% of the planet doesn't care and 2% actively doesn't want it to happen.

Not my fault your poor. Maybe of you worked harder, you wouldn't be losing NN.

>internet
>internetwork
Just link two routers via another router desu

Meshnets are difficult, and mobile meshnets even more so.
Freifunk is pretty good for a city-wide meshnet, but it already struggles under too many users.
Routing in mobile opportunistic meshnets is really hard, and you would never get much bandwidth at all, or even know if your packets get lost or not.
You can pretty much forget mobile meshnets, and something like freifunk would never replace the internet, because the cool thing about the internet is talking to people outside of your city/country.
What could be possible though is to pretty much build your own fucking internet.
