I draw the line in the same place I offer. I freely share what I can with no strings attached. I do not want corporate internet. The vast majority of what they do has no real value. I want a digital public square for the whole world to share ideas and grow in a positive environment without exploitation, manipulation, or stalkers.
As ideal as that sounds, who would maintain the noncorporate internet? The government paid for with taxes? The users? How much of your time, energy, money, system would you be willing to sacrifice for a digital public square?
I'd gladly post a git and self host. Just make all ISP's provide a static IP, VPS, and symmetrical internet like they should be doing already. Also reinstate net neutrality and stop corporate privateer ad stalkers.
