There was a show HN for something similar a couple months ago[0]. Looks like they shut it down. Probably too difficult/low-margin to run as a business, but I think the co-op model you mentioned has potential.

I think a co-op would appeal to the same demographic who are into mesh networks plus all the anti-Flock people. Maybe I'll start something with my friend group and see how it goes from there.
