This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

Seeing an increase in #MeshCore traffic around the downtown #Boston area today. Glad to see folks out using it during #NoKings.

This is an example of community-run, #decentralized, off-the-grid #mesh networking #infrastructure playing an important role in society.

Folks are reporting that cell phones are essentially unusable due to the volume of people but MeshCore and Meshtastic are both functioning.

One of the surprising things I've learned about public protests in the street is that even against Hitler, they were effective.

While there were not terribly many of them, there are some that stand out - and they were open demonstrations against arrests, like those of protestant bishops Hans Meiser and Theophil Wurm in October 1934, or the protests in Berlins Rosenstraße in March 1943, mainly organized by the wives of approximately 1700 Jewish men.

In both cases, the regime caved.

Cities around the country should be thinking about how projects like #Meshtastic and #MeshCore fit into events such as #NoKings.

It requires the support of technical members of the community taking the time to set up this infrastructure, which has a cost and is certainly not free.

I’d estimate some members of the #Boston MeshCore network have spent thousands of dollars on equipment.

A sweltering afternoon didn’t keep people away in Austin, TX
