open mobile hardware
what if we just drop the baseband/cell stuff and swap it for mesh networking protocols? it might even be possible to create software for #android phones that lets them connect to the #mesh. there are lots of options to replace sms (#matrix #xmpp &c.) and it would be pretty easy to create bridges to these legacy systems.

#Seattle’s massive wireless #mesh network temporarily deactivated after news of "the network’s expansive web of #surveillance abilities." e.g. mobile devices, "license plate readers and traffic cameras", "Seattle #police now say the network was 'operational' but not being 'operated' after allegedly #forgetting to turn off the system following its initial test phase, contradicting earlier claims." "According to police, the network #deactivation process is more advanced than simply flipping a switch, but #no specific timeline was given as to #when the network would be completely deactivated." http://intellihub.com/2013/11/13/seattle-police-announce-temporary-mesh-network-deactivation-following-major-document-leak/ cc @question

Did you hear yet of the #Mesh Extender which is a combined battery powered embedded Linux router and #UHF packet radio running the #GPL'd Serval Mesh software http://oracle.skilledtests.com/url/6917 - they say the UHF packet radio has a range of about 10x that of #WiFi when deployed indoors with omni-directional antennae. Combined with the always-on end-to-end #encryption of voice calls and text messages of the Serval Mesh they think that this device has the potential to play a significant role in enabling #distributed, resilient and private #communications for people in a wide variety of situations
