@coolboymew @461 @heavens_feel@neckbeard.xyz @JapanAnon A sneakernet is basically a "computer network" based off of transferring files via removal-able storage devices (flash drives, SD cards, etc.). Seems inefficient, but can be anonymous as paying with cash and is commonly used to smuggle illegal information in countries like North Korea.

A meshnet is a type of computer network where all the nodes (connected devices) are connected directly to as many other nodes as possible. So, there is no need for routers, modems, DNS servers, ISPs, etc. Essentially the entire infrastructure of the network is peer-to-peer.

@461 @heavens_feel@neckbeard.xyz @JapanAnon @coolboymew You could circumvent the physical infrastructure of the internet entirely through things like Sneakernets, wireless meshnets, etc.

@461 @heavens_feel@neckbeard.xyz @Moon @coolboymew @JapanAnon Even governments can't shutdown torrents since they're P2P. Even if the site hosting the torrent files goes offline the torrents themselves will still exist as long as people are seeding them.

@coolboymew @461 @heavens_feel@neckbeard.xyz @JapanAnon @Moon I think WebTorrent could fix this. It's basically a JS torrent client that runs in your browser. It's what BitChute uses.

@AtlasFreeman@liberdon.com @h4890@liberdon.com If you want something with a better interface, Discourse seems to be the more popular choice, but you are going to need to find a host/server that supports Ruby (much less common than PHP), and it is heavily dependent on JavaScript which can piss off non-JS users. I would still go with phpBB thought. There are plenty of extensions to make it look less like a site from 2006.

As for something federate (I assume you mean something like the Fediverse), the only option I could think of is a newsgroup on Usenet. But I bet most of your userbase won't even know what that is or assume it is something no longer exists. The only other option is an XMPP server with multi-user chats (unlike IRC messages are temporarily archived).

@AtlasFreeman@liberdon.com
Just get a VPS or share hosting plan and install phpBB. Keep it simple.

@coolboymew @rok0 If there is going to be a second civil war in the US, other countries are going to get involved and it will become WWIII.

@hanbaobun @rok0 @terminal @coolboymew Defense Distributed has you covered.

@coolboymew @terminal @rok0 So there is still plenty of time to stock on AR-15s.

@coolboymew @histoire@neckbeard.xyz @camedei456 It wouldn't surprise me if organizations like the ADL are also funding them. Remember they're working with EA to kick out all those "nazi gamers".
