So thousands of programmers have been laid off recently, they can almost all work remotely and we all need to get off US tech as quickly as possible.

Or maybe to create a new kind of "peoplenets", letting groups of like-minded folks set up small, loose, evanescent networks? To communicate via relayed signals between cheap, low-power, unregulated, not-commercially-monopolized radios? Kinda like the Internet was visualized, way back when, but for little folks to use, not the ellisons or the emperor's troops? Secure and encrypted?

Great sci-fi story idea, eh?
