This is how you get darknets.
Ive been thinking of making one for the area I'm at. Looks like a fun project at the very least.
Yeah I wonder if it could get darknets from the dark nasty garbage dumps they are now into a more mainstream privacy-conscious network. Basically, what they were always meant to be but only the really dark people used it and scared everyone else off.
For a decade of negligence?
