25th May 2012 in Thoughts

In the past I didn't realize how indipendent networks are important to our society. The internet has really revolutionized our society, there's no turning back and this trend cannot do anything else than evolve.

Where is the internet heading to? I really believe in an open, more accessible, fully decentralized new internet, which is built by citizens on their roofs or by smaller (prevalently wireless) service providers...

Features:

  • Tag editing
