That actually seems like an interesting project.

Get a bunch of hackers and DIY small farm folks etc. to move to the same place with the goal of disentangling themselves from megacorps. To begin with it increases the local concentration of people who want that and then causes local businesses and agencies to start serving their needs better because they're a higher proportion of the local population. And it puts the people so inclined in closer proximity to each other which improves coordination.

If you got enough of them you could even affect local ordinances and then e.g. pass strong right to repair laws or laws against businesses requiring you to use one of the major phone platforms. How many localities would need a law against remote attestation before companies would have to stop using it against people?
