We need public infrastructure for communication that doesn't create conditions where all we do is try to emulate older broadcast media models such as TVs, radio, or newspaper.

This means 25Mbps uncapped IPv6 (no NAT) symmetric bandwidth for everyone and safe harbor laws for individuals and not just corporations. I think at that point centralized services for Internet-based communication become unnecessary, though centralized storage for things like long video posts may still be needed.



We have public radio though, not just public antennas.
