Nah, people just need to wake up and start building own infra. Everyone just waits for some white knight to pour money at infra to backup stuff for them. No, DO sth usefull. In good old days people used to have small web servers to host personal and friends webpages.

Yeah, it could not scale and your site could be DoSed, but thats another problem with todays internet, noone gives a fuck up about abuse..

Anyway, layer your virtual Internet.. All the toys are here. VPNs (wireguard, OpenVPN, tinc-vpn, ...), Routing (Quagga, FRR, bird). Build infra, have fun.

Neat project is DN42, but they are more for testing and research. We need more such networks for content, gaming and other interesting stuff.
