> I wonder if we'll eventually move towards a decentralized mesh network
What would they do? We still use address systems based on groups owned by the governments. I’m not even protesting that fact. I’m just amazed that a large group of people think they can have a direct dependency on someone else’s property, and pretend that they are completely independent.
Another possible solution is to somehow get influential people to buy into these systems. That way, they won't want to stop it even if they could.
