    Okay, what is this bill actually saying?

    That soon, you won’t even be able to own most computers without registering it under a government ID?

    Because that’s fucking nuts.

          I’m more interested in meshcore, which seems to take inspiration both from reticulum and meshtastic, but i’ve heard interesting stuff about reticulum.

      The way things are going both with the hardware market and government over reach it won’t be long until all we can own are thin clients that rent hardware from virtual servers. In less than 10 years we won’t own our PCs and will have absolutely no privacy or anonymity online.
